About

Jordan has thirty seconds to sell the whole seventh grade on a favorite book in a short video. Grades 6-8 students learn posting words, answer what and why questions, explain a phrase from context, spot the privacy problem in the first take, sort what is safe to share, choose a calm response to a mean comment, summarize with Somebody-Wanted-But-So-Then, decode comment slang and figurative language, find the #sponsored clue, and finish with a word search. Every passage, question and answer has a read-aloud button.

What's included

  • 13 scenes with read-aloud on every passage, question and answer
