Temple Public Library cards - Students can pick up an application in the BMS library if they would like to get a public library card. This can be added to their school Sora account to provide them access to thousands more eBooks and audiobooks.
Ms. Whetstone's STRIPES class were the first BMS students to break out the makerspace stations! 6th grade students collaborated on building marble runs; deconstructing old technology; and creating paper airplanes, Lego builds, and "stained-glass" art.
A BIG BMS shout out to Ms. Whetstone and her class for exploring STEAM opportunities during STRIPES time!
Teachers: please contact Mrs. Wilson if you would like to reserve the makerspace.
Students can continue to access Sora over the break to read eBooks and listen to audiobooks.
