Students can practice their reading and speaking skills by narrating a template book that you prepare for them. Each student will get their own copy of the template book, hear your narration, and then record their own voice narrating each page.
Teacher Instructions
• You have two options to prepare the template book:
1) Create your own book or
2) Find a book from our Library that can be remixed (such as this book) and click "Remix".
• Either way, when you’re in the editor,
