Lists and Awards such as Sora Sweet Reads, Caldecott Medal honorees, Teen’s Top Ten, or even custom lists of titles you create yourself!
Our Complete Books & Poems Collection so students can watch or listen to books even if they can’t make it to the library.
- Story Time Activity Kits and Digital Book Kits that encourage family engagement with picture books.
Create Student Reading Records using custom lists to encourage students to keep track of their summer reading journey.
Create or upload a class list of texts for next year or semester. Easily embed on a webpage, LibGuide, or learning management system page to provide a helpful visual that connects to resources for each title! You can even print bookmarks or flyers of these lists to share with families at Family Night!
Analyze your lists, curricular texts, or titles in your classroom or library by using our Analysis Tool to gain insight into the cultural diversity, genre, recency, reading levels, and more represented. Use TeachingBooks tools to fill in any gaps.
