Cameron Library Resources
Accelerated Reader Quiz List: Please use the following link to access a list of books and quizzes available on the Accelerated Reader program used at Morris School. This list will help you and your child select books that are on the quiz list when you are at home, at our town library, or at other locations. Please be advised that we have over 2,400 books on our list...so it may take awhile for the entire list to load on your screen. The list will open in its own window separate from our school's web site. Also be aware that printing the entire list will require on some printers over 90 pages.
School Subscription Sites
Pearson Success Net: Math textbooks for grades 3 through 5 are offered online via a family account. Directions and a pass code for obtaining a family account were sent home with your child at the beginning of the school year. If you require the directions and pass code again, please contact Morris School. Below is the web address for entry to our math textbook site.

Child Friendly Search Engines
KidsClick!: KidsClick! was developed by the Ramapo Catskill Library System to address the concern of guiding young Internet users to valuable and age appropriate web sites. KidsClick! is not an Internet filter and it does not prevent users from accessing inappropriate web sites. It is intended to guide users to good web sites, not block them from inappropriate ones. It is a good site for families to begin searching for valuable information on the web.
Ask for Kids: Formerly known as Ask Jeeves for Kids is a fast, easy and kid-friendly way for kids to search online. Ask for Kids uses natural-language technology that allows kids to ask questions and perform web searches. This service combines human editorial judgment and filtering technology to enable kids to find relevant information on the web. Please be advised that Ask for Kids will not prevent children from accessing inappropriate sites. Its goal is to direct users to best sites for students.
