Did You Know? - March 2021

 

TeenBookCloud, for middle school through high school, is just as rich in content as its elementary-level companion, TumbleBookLibrary! You’ll find Middle School fiction and YA/Teen fiction at all reading levels, from hi/lo fiction for students at a lower reading level all the way to books for AP English. The AP section is divided into time periods, that include Ancient Works such as Homer’s Odyssey and The Divine Comedy through centuries of classic literature, all the way up to the present day. Drama and Poetry features Greek plays, the complete works of Shakespeare, and works by Emily Dickinson, Robert Frost and Walt Whitman, among many others. Graphic novels include a biography of the Beatles, tales of Excalibur and King Arthur, and mystery and fantasy stories, enhanced eBooks and audio books featuring text read-aloud features, are available as well.

And that’s just Fiction! Nonfiction is divided into the following categories: History, Civics, Science, and a General area featuring content and articles from sources such as the New Yorker and Scientific American. There is also a section of Common Core supporting materials, featuring primary source documents such as Supreme Court decisions and MLK Jr’s Letter ‘From A Birmingham Jail.’

If your students are looking for something to read direct them to TeenBookCloud on the ERS Portal for a wide variety of choices and options.
