After a simple registration procedure, you’re ready to participate in the activities and discussions on the Reading Planet site. You can also organize your own favorites on My Bookshelf, save your games, and make quick links to your favorite articles using the My Bookshelf features.
The Book Zone is a library of titles from early childhood through teen interest levels. This area features reviews of books, all written by readers. Kids can read summaries, see what other kids think, and rate the books themselves. Find a book by searching for the author, title or keyword check out the Top Five books, or browse. Browsing can be by age, by interest category, or even the whole list, though there are so many titles that searching, if possible, is highly recommended.
The Game Station, The Activity Lab and Express Yourself areas include activities with a reading and writing focus. Pick a scene, answer a few questions, and you’re writing a personalized story using the Story Maker. Use Word Builder to create word search puzzles using an available list or creating your own word list. Rather draw? Print out a tale from the Illustrate a Story section in the Activity Lab and draw the corresponding pictures.
Reading Planet by Reading Is Fundamental (RIF) is a good place to find engaging literacy activities. Independent readers, social and creative kids, involved parents, and even reluctant readers will find something interesting waiting for them on the Reading Planet.
