Our media center has a set of Lightbox Books. Lightbox Books
are great because they have extra stuff that can be accessed from the book. Our books are multi-user which means all
students could read them at the same time.
The really nice thing right now is – they can be accessed from HOME. Yes, you can’t come to the Media Center to
check them out right now, but you can read them from home, along with the
videos and puzzles and neat stuff that is included in them.
Here’s how you find them:
o
Go to Follett Destiny. The icon looks like a
tree full of books!
You can find it several ways:
§
It’s under “Links We Love” on the left but not the tree, just click on Destiny.
§
It’s in ClassLink.
§
From the Polk County Public Schools webpage
under Students, then Online Resources.
o
Click on Citrus Ridge: A Civics Academy. (Right side, Under K-8 Schools)
o
Click on Log In (Top Right Corner in the blue
box)
o
Log in. Your username is your 6-digit Student
ID. (There is no 5300 in front.) It’s
your library number and your lunch number. Your password is “readmore” with no capitals
and no spaces.
o
Destiny Discover should open right up. At the
top, you will see our Lightbox books!
o
There are books for every level so keep hunting
until you find one you like. When you
find one you like, click on the book and then click “OPEN.”
o
Once the book opens, click on “Open Lightbox.”’
o
Make sure you look at all the extras and the
tools at the bottom on the page.
o
Enjoy!
o
Most of the books also have an AR test!
