LG supports 2008 National Year of Reading




Fusehill Street library and the Learning Gateway are celebrating The 2008 National Year of Reading. The aim is to encourage everyone to read for 10 minutes each day.
Learning Gateway staff put together displays of ideas for reading and a voting board for favourite films and books. Plus, Heather Benson, Learning Facilitator, created a special interactive whiteboard reading quiz, which tests students' knowledge of famous books and authors and gives them a chance to play with the SmartBoard features.
The pictures show students having a go at answering questions on authors past and present.
We'll be running the quiz in LG 004 Tuesday 2-4pm and at the weekends. Come and have a play and tell us what you think of it!

If you would like to know how the interactive whiteboard quiz was created just ask any of the Learning Facilitators and we'll be only too happy to show you how you could devise something similar yourself.
