During Distance Learning, I used these resources for quick access during Zoom instruction. My students enjoyed them independently via Seesaw, as well.

Having now returned to modified in-person instruction, we use this in the classroom for individual student access as an alternative to the classic classroom library. It also serves as a choice menu for our Student of the Day during whole group activities. It provides thematic enrichment and supplemental activities, as well. The home-school connection is so important, so students will continue to have access at home.

Links for Seesaw and Google Slides are included.
