Effective Literacy Website # 5

Bookopolis

According to this website https://www.bookopolis.com/#/, Bookopolis is a kid-friendly social network and book discovery tool designed to ignite a love of reading in elementary and middle school students. This is a free website and also a helpful website for both teachers and students.  Both teachers and students can create and account for this website. Teachers can create this website to get more interesting and helpful strategies to improve their teaching and also make their lesson interesting and motivating. Teachers can view the dashboard to view video tutorials to help their lesson be more engaging to the students.

This site is also available for parents so they can also help with their reading skills. This website also provides reading materials that are available for all the grade levels. Students can also search any kind of book they want to read. There are many activities students can do in the Bookopolis to improve their reading skills and also improve their love of reading. Students can create their own virtual bookshelves by logging the books they have already read and they can also earn points from the collections they have. Students can also share with their classmates or friends the book they have read or recommend books to friends. This is an interesting website because students can discover many new books to read to improve their reading skills.  Students can also practice persuasive writing, comprehension, and typing skills by completing review, reports, and reading logs online.

This is also a great website for teachers and parents because they can track or see where students are with their independent reading. I recommend that teachers and parents should refer to this website to enhance the children’s literacy skills. Bookopolis is a great site for students to connect to readers and explore books they’ve already read or may like to read. This website also provides a fun games section where students can engage in word games, trivia and puzzles. I believe that this website can easily improve our student’s literacy skills in a fast way.
