This site is partnered with Flickr so that your students can upload pictures from Flickr to write a book of their own, or students can upload their own photos.
You will be able to address any component of your Reading Frameworks by either downloading books already created for the component you wish to address, or you can make up your own book for use in guided reading or shared reading. Main Idea is a huge problem area for many students.
You could create a book addressing Main Idea and then generate a test for the book you or your student(s) create.
I accessed this site today and my students loved it. And, this site is approved for use by my school district, so I plan to take full advantage of it. And, by the way, there are books on most any topic you might want to include in your lesson plan.
This site is also very useful in creative writing. Students get to write their text beneath pictures which you might choose for an assignment. My students are fourth graders and they were very excited about using these tools today.
I am including a preview of this site within my post in order for you to view it and see what it is like. Please take a look at this site. I think it would be helpful to many of you with whom I have spoken about your AR project. The site also provides alternative methods of viewing if you do not have components needed to view the books
