Read about it with audio supports to read orally on the smartboard to the whole class.

Teachers may want students to focus on a particular piece in the reading. With the Read about it screen up on the smartboard, teachers could pause it and have students take notes on key parts.

Add Lexile Levels to the Topic Readers by text names on online platform
