As part of our Golden Dragon and Silver Knight reading program for grades 3 - 5, I'm posting Voki book talks on our library home page.
Vokis are a fast and fun way to engage students in new titles.
A voki classroom account allows you to set up student accounts as well. ($29 for the year)
How to Voki:
- Design the character (choose clothes, jewelry, hair/eye color, background) Voki gives you "randoms" to choose - just roll the die at the bottom of the sample.
- Tell your Voki what to say (choose either boy or girl and then pick an accent - British? Scottish? US?)
- Type in the text - use punctuation and phonetic spellings to get the words to sound the way you want.
- Publish and share the link or embed onto a website.
Here are the vokis I've posted so far. I'm highlighting a different book each week.
After All, You're Callie Boone, by Winnie Mack
Black Radishes, by Susan Lynn Meyer
Out of My Mind, by Sharon Draper

Are you able to post these voki booktalks into your Follett Destiny program?
