Booktrack Classroom

Booktrack is a free online application that helps you immerse yourself further into a story by pairing a synchronized movie style quality soundtrack with the words of ebooks. This is a great tool to use in a classroom. The importance of reading cannot be overemphasized to students. And as any teacher will tell you, helping them develop a love of reading can sometimes be an uphill battle. For some, words on a page will always be just words on a page. But picture being able to enhance the reading experience for your students by allowing them to hear dramatically heightened music as you reach the climax of the story, or adding a certain theme song that is associated with a particular character making the story your own. Booktrack allows you to choose from a library of over 12,000 booktracks that have already been created by other users and also gives you an option to create and publish your own stories to music by using their library of over 20,000 free to use music and ambient audio tracks. Allowing kids to help create the experience will further push the incentive for them to want to read. The music is adaptable to your own reading pace and music can be stopped, resumed and started over if needed. Changing a school task into a enjoyable pleasure.
