FIRST CONCEPTS

These books focus on foundational concepts that are the basis for all future vocabulary acquisition and comprehension; introduction to basic vocabulary and concepts such as colors, numbers, letters, same and different, shapes, and so much more!

EARLY READER

These books feature accessible language for beginning readers, include strong photo-text correlation, and address a multitude of social studies/science topics in a manner that are easy to comprehend for early readers. They are always written at a 0.9 ATOS level or lower (F&P B–C) while still being quizzable by Accelerated Reader.

LEVELED READER

These books are aimed at the early elementary reader but go into a bit more detail than Early Readers and serve as quick but solid introductions to early elementary topics such as animals, biographies, and other relevant social studies, science, and math topics for Grades 1 to 2.

With leveled informational text, audio narration, text highlighting, and rich media hotspots featuring videos, charts, and maps, each book is a new adventure. Optional content creation tools guide students in creating their own blog, writing an email, creating a wiki page, and more!

“The books are presented as a double page view just as a paper book will be viewed when held. And the succeeding pages are viewed by scrolling down rather than clicking forward. This allows much greater visual acuity and opportunities for understanding. The comments I have received from teachers regarding the ease of use and applicability for students at grade level, below grade level and those requiring resources for differentiated learners with various disabilities has been beyond positive.

SOCIAL STUDIES WORLD HISTORY

Frontline Families

Reading Level: 5–6 Interest Level: 5–8

Studies of military conflicts are often reduced to numbers of casualties and battlefield maneuvers. But anyone who has a loved one who has served in the armed forces knows there are innumerable personal accounts that are never printed in books or reported in the news. These stories don’t only come from the frontlines but soldiers’ families as well. This absorbing series relates the course of several famous wars, from the American Revolution to the War in Afghanistan, but also highlights the daily experiences of soldiers and those back home. Readers are provided with insight into the far-reaching effects of military action.

History’s Greatest Rivals

Reading Level: 6–8 Interest Level: 6–8

Some historical figures are so intertwined that it’s impossible to give an accurate account of one life without mentioning the other. In these volumes, connected pairs are some of the most famous and contentious rivalries in history. Abraham Lincoln and Jefferson Davis, Elizabeth I and Mary, Queen of Scots, and Sitting Bull and George Armstrong Custer are three of the featured foils whose relationships are integral to their biographies as well as to certain momentous events. Each book explains the historical context surrounding the rivalry and the impact and aftermath of the opposing forces. Photographs, paintings, and quotation boxes are highlights of the appealing design.
