MT. PLEASANT, S.C. - Thanks to Principal Dennis Duncan, Jefferson Elementary School has been awarded the Sylvan Dell Publishing Resource Grant.This one-year site license provides unlimited access to all 35 Sylvan Dell eBooks, featuring flipviewer technology with selectable English and Spanish text and audio. The license can be used on all school computers and may be placed on secure school Web sites (if available), enabling students and their families to log in and have access from their homes.
Teachers throughout the school are able to project the books in the classroom for easy reading to supplement or to introduce science and math through literature in the classroom.
In June, Sylvan Dell Publishing announced this unprecedented educational resource grant, hoping to further pursue its mission of "bringing science and math to children through literature."
Not only is the grant helpful to teachers, but Sylvan Dell books are a great resource for parents at home, too. According to Sylvan Dell co-owner Lee German, "What we have created is a set of serious tools for teachers and parents to use to both entertain and teach their children. We don't want to be just another picture book publisher. We want to be loved for our products and our commitment to excellence, and we want to be part of the education solution."
