Novel Effect: Add Music and Sound Effects to your Live Read Alouds
Imagine your elementary students gathered around you while you read a physical book out loud and from your phone/tablet/bluetooth speaker comes accompanying music and sound effects as if reading literature wasn't magical enough! Novel Effect is a paid service, but educators can use 5 read alouds a month for free. They are also willing to negotiate if a plan is preferred but pricing is an issue.
