Magic Blox has a large and growing collection of eBooks for kids 1 -13 years old, and the children will enjoy reading and exploring each text by different authors. The children can use their computers and tablets to read the stories on this site. The children need to register in order for them to read the whole text. The children will be able to explore other cultures by reading each text that is provided. For the home page of Magic Blox, it's stated that you need to register and provide different titles of stories.

The Magicblox is provided for students to enjoy reading different reading books. As I navigated through this website, I learned that most of our children will enjoy reading the stories because it provides clear text and pictures. By reading the stories to your children it will enhance their reading and comprehension skills.

     Thank you, Dr. Rivera and to my classmates for making the learning experience in class enjoyable and worthwhile. I appreciate all the information shared online, email, and on text.  This class has made teaching with technology less daunting and challenging as we face a new level of technology-literate learners.  Even old dogs (like myself) are still able to learn new tricks.      Good luck to everyone as we continue to move forward with the Program. We’ve got this!      I know this isn’t necessarily good-bye, just see you later. In the meantime...
