Scholastic Widget

Hi!  I am Michelle from Teach123.  Jennifer asked me to be a guest blogger on her site to liven things up a bit!  I recently found the Scholastic Widget on the Internet and just had to share it with you!

We all know that Scholastic Book Clubs are a wonderful resource for building your classroom library.  But, did you know they are also a great resource when you are planning lessons?  Scholastic.com has a section for teachers called book wizard.  Book wizards gives helpful information such as genre, reading level, themes, etc.  There is also a search option so you can find other books similar to the book you type in the box and you can even adjust the reading level.  This is perfect when you have those spark plugs who need to be challenged!  The majority of your class may be reading one book, and with this search option you can find a similar books for students who are working above or below level.  It's the perfect tool for differentiation. You can add a widget to your blog, too.  Here's a screen shot:

Thanks for reading!
