Lakeland has a TumbleBooks subscription!

At a conference on Technology and Literacy last spring, several Lakeland elementary teachers were introduced to an online library of e-books through the TumbleBooks Library. After the conference, the group met, explored the site and decided to pilot its usage during the 2005-06 school year. Click on the link above to access the site. The user name is lakelandschools and the password is books. Lakeland students can access the site at home as well, using the user name and password.

Please share your ideas for using this site with your colleagues and let me know how you like the site and how you are using it. This webpage will be dedicated to sharing ideas across the district.

What stories have you read with your students? What are their favorites? How does the site help you meet your ELA goals? Have you developed any activities to accompany the stories? Send those ideas (files) to me and I will post them here.
