APPROACH

Tales2Go provides multiple options for users to search: from highest rated and most popular playlists to browsing by age group, story type, books and classics, series/characters, narrators or grade level. Under the story type header, users can choose from a wide range of genres, such as American tales, classic tales, fables, folk tales, and a history section, containing biographies and more. While listening to a story, a user can create a bookmark, add to favorites, or rate the story.

Teachers also can use the Tales2Go Learning Resources Section, which includes lesson plans and tools correlated to Common Core standards. The company has partnered with Renaissance Learning to use its Accelerated Reader algorithm to identify reading materials that best suit student readers’ abilities.
