Students will need their email addresses to access Sora and Microsoft Applications. See the example below to know student email addresses.
First Name: Ronald
Last Name: Weasley
Student Number: 123456
Email address: ronald.w456@slcstudents.org
Passwords will be the student’s regular password
Students have access to several resources for them to read books online. Students can log in to SORA using the SORA app, the SORA link above or log in using Clever. When using SORA, the username is the student's email address and their password is the same as their regular school password. Students can also find read aloud videos on their library Canvas page. For students who want to watch videos of celebrities reading picture books, they can use Storyline Online. Links to all these sites are under the resource section to the bottom of this page.
Students who lose a book can pay for the book or read down the fine. Click the link below for the form to read down the fine, or come see Miss Pipkin in the library for a copy.
These videos come from the Canvas website, and while the narration is in English, we have been able to translate the subtitles/closed captions into Spanish.
- There are three videos, but there are two versions of each video, one with English subtitles and one with Spanish subtitles
- If you can’t see the subtitles/close captions when you first start playing the videos, be sure to click on the “CC” button in the controls just below the video.
-
If you don’t want to watch a video, we have also created a written Canvas Guide for parents. It is also available in English and Spanish
