"Just-Right" Content in the LightSail Library
Let students discover the joy of reading as they explore new books, classics, nonfiction, science, history - the possibilities are as vast as their interests! It's easy to search for titles, genres, authors, or subjects - and make notes for assignments.
Power Texts Ensure Student Lexile Growth
When students take the Power Challenge, they learn their Lexile reading level - and LightSail personalizes their library showing them books in their personal ZPD (zone of proximal development), indicated by a lightning bolt.
