Book Creator Challenge
Challenge your students to author their own eBooks and win a Kindle Fire for you!
Each free teacher Book Creator account has a code for students to create eBooks. There are 40 books available in each teacher account. Students can use pictures, images from an internet safe search, videos, or sound clips. Have your 3rd - 5th grade students create a book about something they learned or have them research a topic they are interested. Consider creating a class book with your K-2nd graders. Using the Comicbook template, students can create their own Favorite Things page that you can share as one comlpete book with your parents. Kindergartners can create an alphabet book with images, pictures, and drawings. The teacher with the largest percentage of class participation will win a Kindle Fire 7!

Fireworks look realistic and the bird goes on a walk looking for worms.
