Clicker Books
Make curriculum content accessible for every learner with our engaging talking books
Help every child become an independent reader
Intuitive, child-friendly and easy-to-use, Clicker Books empowers pupils of all abilities to read more independently. Use the speaker button to hear the text on the page read aloud in Clicker’s clear, realistic voice. Each word will also be highlighted as it’s read, giving that instant visual and aural reinforcement that’s so powerful for early or struggling readers.
If children want to have a go at reading the text themselves, they can click/tap on any word that they are struggling with to have it read to them. Many of our Clicker “Read a Book” sets also include a simplified “Read It Yourself” version, specifically designed to encourage children to access the content independently.
Instantly access hundreds of ready-made resources
Our LearningGrids team has created a fantastic bank of professional Clicker Books covering a wide range of curriculum topics, and they are always busy adding exciting new titles to the list! Head to Story Corner for beautifully illustrated traditional tales, myths and legends, as well as phonically decodable stories. If it’s non-fiction texts you’re after, explore our subject categories – including geography, history and science.
Personalise books with photos and videos
Any of our ready-made Clicker Books can be edited, enabling you to tailor the subject matter and comprehension level to your pupils’ particular learning needs, interests and objectives. For example, you can incorporate your own photos using your device’s camera, choose images from the Camera Roll, or create new pictures using the integrated painting tools. You can even record and upload videos.
Get creative with child-friendly book making
With Clicker Books, children can also create their very own books, complete with pictures, text, sound, and video. With the help of realistic speech feedback, word prediction and picture support, pupils can demonstrate their knowledge in a way that’s creative, accessible and fun. You can also provide subject-specific word and picture banks to scaffold writing tasks for learners who would benefit from more targeted support, enabling every child to produce independent work they are proud of, whatever their learning needs.
