We have just released a fantastic new feature on Pageticker, the ability for teachers to tag a book. The book tag feature, has been created based on feedback from lots of teachers across our database.
What are Book Tags?
Pageticker is a digital reading record. Pupils read books from school, the library or home and then record their reading on Pageticker.
Teachers using Pageticker, requested a way to filter by book type. To see for example, how many pages are being read from class readers, read-for-pleasure books or phonics books.
Teachers can tag:
Reading scheme books
Read-for-pleasure books
Class reader books
Phonics books
Guided reading books
Adding and Monitoring Book Tags
If you want to add a book as a teacher, it's really quick and simple. The video below explains how you can do this. Also, how book tags can help you to monitor class and group reading.
As a teacher, you don't have to add a book to a child's bookstack. However, we know from feedback that this is something some teachers are keen to do.
When a book tag is added, you'll often be given smart suggestions based on prior reading.
Book tags are also added to books when parents add a book a child's bookstack on the parent app. Some schools will encourage parents to add books rather than teachers adding books.
