As with some of my other posts, this documents how we are using our SET-BC special project technology outside of our original proposal.
For those following our blog, you know that we use the Reading A-Z program in our class to support literacy development. In an earlier post I discussed the Clicker sets we've created to support the level a and aa books within this program. Today's post showcases an awesome tool for students reading level I stories from Reading A-Z.
Below are some screen shots of the level I story summary clicker set.

Below are some screen shots of the level I story summary clicker set.
Students begin by inserting a title, their name and the date. Then they click on the red cell that begins with the phrase "On the cover of this book there is".
Students then select the adjacent red "Book Details" cell that gives them a variety of choices that all correspond with pictures on the cover of all level I Reading A-Z books.
The clicker set then continues with prompts for the setting. Again, all choices reflect material found in all the level I books.
The most complicated prompt is "One thing I liked about this book was" as it requires students to finish the sentence in their own words.
Below is a sample completed by one of my students after they read the book "At the Zoo."
All Reading A-Z resources will soon be available on the SET-BC website under The Learning Centre (curriculumSET) curriculum share.
