World Book School Edition

I really enjoyed these, but my favorite is World Book Kids, it has so many fun things for kids! I looked up dolphins on World Book Kids and World Book Student. The difference was pretty much what I expected; longer, more in depth articles in the school edition and lots of pictures n the Kids edition. I really liked the article read aloud feature, even though it sounded strange. World Book Advanced was really cool too. I looked up Greece and there was so much that came up. I liked how on the left side you could chose just pictures or just history, etc. I also liked the print feature in the articles that you can print off each section individually. There was also links to other websites. I found World Book Discoverer pretty easy to use too. There were a lot of pictures again, which I think would make it easier for someone who is not English speaking or someone who needs differentiated instruction. I also thought the article translation feature, the article read aloud and the word definition features would be good. I also really liked the feature for teachers that brought up how the South Dakota Content Standards applied to a particular article, that was really neat.
