World Book Foreign Language

If you scroll down in an article, you can find links to other World Book sections for more articles and resources! Another perk for easy research and teacher planning. Everything at your fingertips for every learning ability!

I love the fact that you can click on a photo and it gives a print option. No more cropping, copy/paste....it just shows the best printing option! Wonderful feature for those students creating a visual project or a display of information. This makes presentations that much less time consuming to out together and more time to practicing the actual presentation!

I just found the translate into language button! Another perk for bilingual students or ESL. I would use this to teach my young students how to say a word in a different language.

World Book school edition

Since I teach preschoolers, I found that World Book Kids was very easy to navigate and not too overwhelming for my students to view on the Smart Board. The World Book Student would be very informational and useful for research and presentations for older students. It had a different format, but still very easy to navigate. I prefer the Kids navigational format better, but that's my preference.

One benefit that I really enjoyed was the Save to My Research option on the right hand side of each article or video. That is very useful for those that have limited time and can save articles to read later. It would also aid in documenting resources when concluding a project.

The read aloud toolbar in World book Discover is awesome! I had to go back and check the other World Books for their read aloud option.  I was disappointed it wouldn't work on the iPad. With technology being so portable, it would be a nice addition to add portable devices. Maybe someone else can get it to work and I'm missing something.....
