Into The Book

Grades 1-3, 9/15 minute programs, AL Rights
Check with your Media Specialist for a copy of this series. Rights have been secured.

The nine Into the Book student episodes feature an extraordinary classroom where a group of ordinary students use powerful learning strategies to enter the world of the story. These 15-minute programs show student viewers how to use these strategies when reading fiction, nonfiction, or everyday text. They also model real-life applications of the strategies.

Each program focuses on a specific reading strategy and shows several different ways that learners use the strategy to increase their enjoyment and understanding of the text. Viewers even get into a student’s imagination for a clever insight into the strategy at work. A complete curriculum resource including interactive online components, teacher guide, and printable graphics are also available at http://reading.ecb.org/index.html.
