TeachingBooks (https://www.teachingbooks.net/) provides resources for children and young adult books. The goal of the TeachingBooks website is to empower every reader to connect deeply with a book, gain new insights from the author, and experience the joy of reading. The website seems to be more user-friendly for young adults and adults when looking for resources for books. There are book reviews for children ages 4-12 that would be more beneficial for teachers or parents to use, so they can figure out what books are best for their children.
There are tabs with resources for students and teachers. The categories of resources that are available for students are Diverse Books, For Fun, Homework Help, Find Book’s You’ll Like, and Build Your Own Reading Lists. In the For Fun category, some of the options are games, read-along audiobook performances, video book trailers, and meet-the-author & illustrator movies and recordings. You may search for books by author or title. Diverse books are separated by subject, culture, genre, thematic booklists, and series. There are lesson activity videos available to view to get ideas related to the different books.
For teachers some of the categories for resources are Literacy and Standards Connections, Book Promotion, Teaching Ideas, Collection Analysis, and Diverse Books. Teaching ideas features timely topics that feature ideas to support themes for the month. There are also mini lessons and monthly book ideas. The monthly book ideas feature books for a certain grade level paired with ideas for activities to do in the classroom. For grades above fourth it also features activities to study the authors. When looking under Literacy and Standard connections you’re able to find multi-leveled lessons, comprehension, author’s purpose, text complexity toolkit, and world languages. Teachers can find book guides provided with multi-leveled activities which explore book elements which help to support comprehension.
You’re able to get a personal license to use for about fifteen days which gives you access to all resources, custom reading lists, diverse books toolkit, teaching ideas, and more. After the fifteen days, you’ll move down to the basic access which allows you to explore the resources and use credits to access them. You also have access to puzzles, games, book annotations, and chrome extensions. Overall, this website features many books with a variety of resources for each learner.
