Playaways are preloaded audiobook players that do not require an additional device and can be checked out from the school library. They contain audiobook versions of titles that align with the curriculum along with supplemental lesson plans and materials. Teachers can use Playaways to improve student literacy and comprehension by having reluctant readers follow along with audiobooks in class or assigning them as homework. Playaways are easy for students to use independently and help engage them with reading.
