This is an innovative option that allows students to produce an educational "product" that complements a research paper, a book report, or other types of cumulative projects that have been assigned. Teachers also have the opportunity to create teaching resources such as informational posters, games, and bulletin boards. Email Mrs. Hall (shall@silverdaleba.org) for more information. These examples below are just a sample of the prints we have done.

Book Selection and Curation
Although we review and evaluate our content, not all titles in our collection are considered Christian literature. Titles can be selected using recommended reading lists for secondary students based on literature they might experience later in their classes or be expected to have a working knowledge of upon entering college. The SORA app allows us to rate books and permit check-out only to certain grade levels based on their classification as Juvenile Literature, Young Adult Literature, or Adult Literature. Some books in the adult literature classification are on specific reading lists such as Honors Reading and are available for checkout by middle school students. We do ask that parents partner with their students in selecting titles that are appropriate for them. Some books may contain violence, vulgarity, or sensitive subject matter. Common Sense Media and Plugged In (by Focus on the Family) offer book reviews and suggested reading lists for families.
