• Modelled practice: Click on Read books in the top menu. Point out that students can conduct a Simple search or an Advanced search. They can also search Books by country or find Award-winning books. Students can do a Keyword search or look at the Author & illustrator list.
• Guided practice: In Simple search, jointly explore the search options with students. Read a book aloud together. Invite a student to assist you to open a book by clicking on its cover. Students can press the forward page arrows and click on the + icon to zoom in closer to read the text.
• Comic and spiral options: When the whole story has been read once through by a different volunteer for each page, revisit the illustrations in a fun way, using the Comic or Spiral functions in the bottom left corner. These require quick downloads, so you will need download rights at your school.
