3 Days Until ISTE Digital Explorers—Explore Hagan Proudly Presents and the Book Creator Reading Companion!

 

It's three days until the release of my new early chapter book series, ISTE Digital Explorers, with Capstone and ISTE.  

Over the next three days, we will celebrate the first four books in this series.  Yesterday, I shared the first book, Sonia Speaks Up, in this post.

Today, we celebrate Hagan Proudly Presents. 

Each book supports one of the ISTE Student Standards, which are highlighted in the back of each book. 

Hagan Proudly Presents supports the ISTE Student Standard: Empowered Learner.  

Students will use technology to set goals, work toward achieving them, and demonstrate their learning.

In the book, there are Words To Know, helpful tips to teach your students, 

questions to Think About, 

...and a special activity, Create An Animal Presentation.

I also worked with my friends at Book Creator to create a wonderful Reading Companion for each book. 

These amazing Reading Companions bring the ISTE Digital Explorers series to life through activities and projects that support and highlight the story, characters, and of course the ISTE Student Standard, Empowered Learner.  

You will find the Hagan Proudly Presents Reading Companion here in Book Creator. 

I love how it brings the book to life with these activities where students can add...

...text, drawings, stickers, voice, video and more. 

I can't wait to use Hagan Proudly Presents with my students, and the Book Creator Reading Companion will be the perfect place to teach, practice and celebrate the skills of being an Empowered Learner. 

I really love how they will get to create a favorite animal presentation using Book Creator just like Hagan and his friends do in the book.  

You'll need a Book Creator account to remix the books into your own library.

And you will find the ISTE Digital Explorers at Capstone and on Titlewave too.

I can't wait to share Jack's Playground Plan tomorrow, friends!

Students will understand the importance of respecting others, staying safe online, safeguarding my well-being, and using technology responsibly in our connected world. 

In the book, there are Words To Know, helpful tips to teach your students, 

questions to Think About, 

...and two activities including Create a Digital Citizenship Pledge and Make a Digital Citizenship Guide.

Also we created My Digital Citizenship Pledge to go along with the activity in the back of the book.  

We will be kicking off the year with this one as we have every student create their pledge to start the new year. 

You'll need a Book Creator account to remix the books into your own library.
