[OPLINLIST] Database of the Month: Early World of Learning

[Mandy Knapp via OPLINLIST]

Hello all,

I hope you're having a lovely day today. Each month I'll be bringing a
resource available from Ohio Web Library <http://ohioweblibrary.org/> to
your attention. This February, let's take a look at Early World of Learning
( <http://ohioweblibrary.org/db/worldbook-early>
http://ohioweblibrary.org/db/worldbook-early), a part of our state-wide
World Book subscription.

*Early World of Learning* is an online resource for preschoolers and early
elementary grade students. It can be used on any device that connects to
the internet, but is optimized for use on an iPad.

 Early World of Learning includes three interactive learning environments:

   - *Trek’s Travels *– narrated stories, interactive games, and original
   videos that teach critical early childhood themes, including numbers,
   shapes, colors, opposites, and more.
   - *Welcome **to Reading *–  practice to develop and strengthen phonics,
   vocabulary, phonemic awareness, and comprehension skills.
   - *Know **It *– a visual interactive encyclopedia that will captivate
   early learners with non-fiction topics of interest and importance to them
