LAKEPORT, Calif. – The Lake County Library announces the good news that the library has subscribed to a fun new reading program that your child can access from home.
Scholastic BookFlix is an online literacy resource that pairs classic animated stories from Weston Woods with thematically aligned nonfiction ebooks from Scholastic to build a love of reading and learning.
This engaging digital resource for children in grades Pre-K through third will help early readers develop and practice essential reading skills, and introduces them to a world of knowledge and exploration.
Your child can access Scholastic BookFlix with a Lake County Library card anywhere there is an internet connection.
Patrons can access bookflix by heading to the library website at http://library.lakecountyca.gov and clicking on digital content. This interactive resource will help them get excited about reading and books, and extends learning beyond school hours.
BookFlix includes classic animated stories, each paired with a related nonfiction ebook. BookFlix has Spanish language versions of the stories.
With the “Read-aloud Supports” students can hear each book narrated, and also hear definitions of key words and directions for each activity. Educational puzzlers let children show what they have learned.
Safe, age-appropriate web links selected by Scholastic’s editors give kids the opportunity to extend their learning on a topic. The “Meet the Creator” section inspires kids to learn more about each fiction book.
Scholastic BookFlix is specifically created to support non-, beginning, and reluctant readers — it’s the perfect resource for independent reading practice at school and at home.
With a library card, patrons can access the library’s array of digital services without the need to visit a local branch. If you need a library card, you can create an online card with the application form on the library website.
If you have a question about an existing library account, call 707-263-8817 and leave a message. Library staff will be available by phone during normal operating hours to assist with the digital resources.
The Lake County Library continues to offer services during the COVID19 stay at home. If you want to keep up with library news, sign up for free weekly email updates on the library’s homepage.
