E-Books – Whole Class Reading

18 Feb

I was very impressed to discover a Kindle download today, that allows you to read Kindle E-Books on your computer, via a free program to download from Amazon for Mac or PC. If you have a PC in the classroom that is connected to a projector / IWB, then this allows for whole class reading sessions which can be together from the growing collection of e-books available on the site.

I downloaded a free e-book from Roger Hurn, with the program allowing you to add bookmarks, notes, and change the look and size of the text, according to your set-up. It also syncs to any linked devices which you have on your Amazon account.

A great free tool to encourage whole class reading, and is a tool I look forward to use in the classroom.
