Text and Tech: Reading All Ways in K–8

In today's rapidly evolving world, literacy is more than just reading words on a page—it's about thinking critically, creating meaning, and engaging with a diverse range of texts and tools. Technology offers exciting opportunities for learning, yet mandates for skill practice, assessment, and data collection often overshadow its true potential. This book champions a YES, AND approach: YES to the power of print books, interactive read-alouds, and time-honored literacy practices, AND yes to digital texts, multimodal storytelling, and open-ended creative tools that amplify thinking and understanding. When students have access to both traditional and digital resources, we expand their agency, increase engagement, and empower them to develop a rich, adaptable literacy skillset. Through the lens of a diverse group of educators and the expertise of longtime teacher and consultant Kristin Ziemke, you'll discover how to create a balanced, student-centered literacy environment where traditional texts and digital tools work together to enhance comprehension, communication, and critical thinking. Get ready to reimagine literacy for today's learners—and tomorrow's world.
