Voices, Sounds & Stories: A New Chapter in Reading Together

January 14, 2026

Library Leaders
Our school community is turning up the volume on reading—literally! With the purchase of a Novel Effect Community Plan, all educators, families, and students now have full access to this engaging app that brings books to life with perfectly timed sound effects and music. In this session, we’ll share how we introduced Novel Effect through interactive Family Literacy Nights, hosted professional development sessions to equip teachers with creative ways to use the app in the classroom, and encouraged families to make read-aloud time more exciting at home. Learn how this innovative approach is building stronger literacy skills, deeper connections, and a renewed love of reading across our school community.
Speakers
