Think Book Builder meets Thinking Reader and Udio. Multiple ideas: 1. "Fan Fiction" reading and finishing fiction/non-fiction. 2. Turn novels you read into "Graphic novels" or Multimedia novels--latching on to empowering student voice, engagement in choices of modality (including but not limited to text), to build comprehension. We want to move beyond reading and responding to text! Interacting with and creating in multimodal formats! 3. Critical literacies: develop engaging approaches for analyzing and evaluating information across media for reliability, veracity, etc.
