Book creator gives students tools to organize a story from beginning to end.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Book Creator is a digital tool that enables students to create and read multimodal digital books. It is an ideal tool for enhancing student engagement through story creation and multimedia design. When creating their own books, students can either generate their own content (by typing, drawing, or uploading self-made videos, audio files, and images) or they can curate online multimedia resources from the Internet. Book Creator can also be used in project-based learning activities because it allows real-time collaboration for multiple students to create one book. While students will get the most educational benefit out of designing their own books, they can also read multimodal books designed by others to enrich their knowledge.

Book Creator also offers a library of pre-designed eBooks and resources for teachers .

Book Creator & the SAMR Model

To further discuss how Book Creator can be used in the classroom, we can examine it with the SAMR Model by Dr. Ruben Puentedura. It suggests that the implementation of technology in teaching and learning has four levels. By using these levels as a guideline, we get to analyze the implication of edtech tools in the classroom.

Substitution: Students read a digital book on Book Creator rather than a traditional textbook.

Augmentation: Students read books that contain multimedia, such as video and audio files, which enriches learning. For example, when learning about a scientific experiment, it can be more helpful to watch a video that demonstrates what happens during the experiment rather than to read about it (see 15 Science Projects for Book Creator Classrooms).

Modification: Students research, collect online resources, and curate them into a book. Students generate original content, including text, videos, audio files, and paintings/pictures to create an original book to demonstrate their understanding and learning outcomes, in replacement of traditional assessments.

Redefinition: Students can create books that can be instantly downloaded and shared publicly on the internet.

Learning Activities

History

Create a bibliography of a historical figure. Write an alternate history book. Design a new history textbook that features influential women and people of color who shaped history.

Science

Create a science journal/log. Design a multimodal handbook for science experiments.

Creative Arts

Create a portfolio of artworks.

English/Language Arts

Write a book about the local community and invite community members to contribute text and multimedia (For example, invite a police officer to suggest some tips for the residents). Write a fractured fairy tale.

Dolly Parton's Imagination Library - Worldwide Book Gifting Program For Children

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Dolly Parton's Imagination Library is a book gifting program that mails free, high-quality books to children from birth to age five, no matter their family's income.

After launching in 1995, the program grew quickly. First books were only distributed to children living in Sevier County, Tennessee where Dolly grew up. It became such a success that in 2000 a national replication effort was underway. By 2003, Dolly Parton's Imagination Library had mailed one million books. It would prove to be the first of many millions of books sent to children around the world.

Dolly's home state of Tennessee pledged to pursue statewide coverage in 2004 and global expansion was on the horizon. After the United States, the program launched in Canada in 2006 followed by the United Kingdom in 2007,in 2013 and the Republic of Ireland in 2019.

Awards & Achievements

Together, Dolly Parton and her book gifting organization have received honors and awards for their dedication to enriching the lives of children everywhere.

The Good Housekeeping Seal of Approval, Best Practices award from the Library of Congress Literacy Awards and recognition in Reading Psychology are just a few among a long list of the prestigious acknowledgments the program has received.

In addition to the many awards the organization has received, several milestones have been celebrated throughout the years. With each goal achieved a new one takes its place, creating an ever-growing and expanding organizational culture, much like that of Dolly's always-keep-dreaming mindset.

These are favorite early reader books for beginning readers, from the easiest books with a few words per page to beginning chapter books with a sentence per page. (For my kids, this was first grade, but for some kids, it's earlier and for other children, it's later. All stages of growth are fine!)

Get ready for summer with amazing 4th grade books to read all summer long! This reading list will give you and your young readers plenty of chapter book and middle grade book choices from which to pick; the best books to hook your soon-to-be 4th graders on reading.

Because you and I both want 4th grade kids to READ this summer. Don't we?

Why? Well, by the time your child is in 4th grade, he or she must read at least 20 minutes daily. Did you know that summer learning loss will affect a child's reading comprehension if you skip reading over the summer?

Look through this fourth-grade reading book list to find the best middle grade books for young readers' summer vacation. Notice that I've divided the recommendations into genres so you can pick something from each list or your favorite genres.

As a former teacher, parent, and book reviewer, you can trust that I've read all these books and am personally recommending them to you.

I know these are all good books that will keep your children reading, learning, and loving stories.

Also, don't you love the win-win situation if you get your kids hooked on a series!? Once they get hooked on one book, there's more to read. That's why I've indicated which books are in a series on the 4th grade book list below. (Hint: Most of them!)

Do you want to know if a book is at your child's reading level? Try the five finger test. Since these books are for sale on Amazon, you can get a short preview of the book before you buy it. Ask your child to read one random full page of text. If they miss between 1 - 5 words, the book is JUST RIGHT, meaning it's at her comprehension level. 0 is too easy, which is fine, but not always. Over five words missed means the book is too challenging. (For now!)

That being said, any books that are too challenging make perfect read aloud books. Or, read them on audiobook!

Don't worry if this reading list isn't right for you...if you have advanced readers, try the 5th grade summer reading list. But, if you have readers who need a bit easier books, try the 3rd grade summer reading list.

Summer reading programs can be great motivation for your fourth graders, too. I love programs that give free books as a reward, don't you?

Don't miss this free reading printable for summer as well as a different free summer "Brain Camp" learning printable - it will keep you organized for summer learning.
