Greetings from The Bodine School's Library!

I love connecting students with books.  My goal at Bodine is to inspire in our students a love of reading and an appreciation of literature.  While they are working to overcome their initial challenges, I hope to help students here experience the personal rewards that reading can bring throughout life.

  • World Book Web: 

    Great news! We now have access to World Book Web. More than just the online version of the printed encyclopedia, World Book Web gives our students access to:

    World Book Kids—the premier general reference Web site developed especially for younger users.  
    World Book Student—includes all articles from the 22-volume World Book Encyclopedia, plus thousands of additional articles and more than 20,000 pictures, maps, videos, and sounds.
    World Book Advanced—tailored for the needs of older students, it includes encyclopedic content, e-books, multimedia, a vast collection of primary source documents, and a wealth of research tools that allow students to customize and save their work.
    World Book Discover — designed for students reading below grade level, this site includes reference articles, text-to-speech capabilities, research and translation tools, and multimedia.
    Enciclopedia Estudiantil Hallazgos—the optimal beginner’s Spanish language site.
    Early World of Learning — Developed with education experts, this includes games, stories and activities for your beginning readers.

    World Book Web is available to you 365 days a year, 24 hours a day, from any computer with internet access. We are providing this service to you at no charge, thanks to the Tennessee Electronic Library (TEL).

    We hope your children will use the World Book Web to help with their homework, special projects, and at-home learning.

    To access the World Book Web, simply:

Collection is ongoing, and the next deadline for submitting boxtops is Oct. 31. The classroom collecting the most Boxtops wins an ice cream party before Christmas, so clip away and send Boxtops in to your student's classroom teacher!
