Each book has a link to Amazon to buy the books I reviewed. Below I have listed some other options to find books:
* Ebay (www.ebay.com)
* Facebook local yard sale: most cities have a Facebook page for people in that area to sell items to each other. I have gotten great deals on children's books. Parents are always looking to de-clutter as their kids get older. The easiest way is to post what books you are looking for or just a general post that you are looking for children's books and then people comment.
* Yard Sales: Good old neighborhood yard sales are always worth checking out!
* Used book stores
* Craigslist (www.craigslist.org)
* Local library: if you aren't looking to buy the books the local library is a wonderful option. Some libraries also have an online lending library that can be accessed with your library card number. The books can be read on an e-reader, phone, or computer
* Youtube (youtube.com): Youtube has a ton of videos. You can find books being read aloud.
APPS: Here is a list of apps that I have found
* Lit leveler: This app lets you get the Lexile, DRA, and GRL levels of books
* Books App 2: This app lets you scan in all your books and keeps track of them with title, author, picture of the cover, etc. It's perfect for coordinating with other teachers to see who has what books, and remembering what books you have so you don't buy a repeat.
* Goodreads: lets you keep track of what books you've read, want to read, and are reading. Also you can read reviews and connect with friends.
* Remind 101: This app allows a teacher to send texts to all their students and/or parents to remind them of assignments, cancellation of class, etc.
