Goal

My goal is to bring my read alouds alive by adding background music and sound effects using the Novel Effects app.

What will be done with my students

Novel Effect delivers interactive music, sound effects, and character voices that are perfectly tuned to respond as we read aloud from our library books during regular read aloud time.

As the story is read, Novel Effect gives students a more immersive experience so they’ll be on the edge of their seats with their focus on me. The story effects are for the books we already use in our curriculum and have in our library.

Students can also use this app during our STEAM centers to encourage and motivate them to read independently.

Benefits to my students

Anything that can motivate and encourage my students to read is a plus.
When a teacher reads aloud to a student or classroom with Novel Effect, there are many benefits identified including…

Promotes literacy and engagement
Supports imagery and visualization
Provides multi-sensory experience
Motivates reluctant and shy readers and encourages public speaking
Supports fluency and accuracy with beginning readers and English Language Learners
Promotes a multi-modal approach to story time for children enrolled in special education programs

Novel Effect offers accessible, interactive content to meet the needs of my diverse students and will keep even my most restless readers engaged and excited to read more.
