Booksource

If you are a licensed teacher, I have a job for you that you may enjoy!


Company Name: Booksource
Company Website: www.booksource.com
Job Title: Teacher Resource Creator
Set Hours?: No, work at your own pace
Work Location: Exclusively at home
Compensation: Per completed task (up to $14/task)

I have actually worked this job for several years and really enjoyed it! Booksource is a company that specializes in classroom library resources, meaning that you can order books through them for a classroom library. They take the time to provide level information for each book, offer sets of the same book, and even sets of a variety of titles based on level, genre or subject. They are really a great company to look into!

One of the other things that they offer to teachers are teacher-created resources for a large portion of their available titles. These resources provide teachers with ideas of how each book can be used to teach concepts from any and all applicable content areas. In this position, you are responsible for creating a resource for a variety of titles that includes:

-possible hooks to get students interested in the book
-ways that the book can be connected to the Common Core Anchor Standards for Reading
-helpful links to enhance the learning (videos, games, audio, author's page)
-thematic ideas that the book could be used for
-comprehension strategies that can be taught through the book
-companion books that would compliment or reinforce the concepts being addressed in the book
-the essential question that the book helps students answer
-a teacher-to-teacher review of the book (point of view, structure, demands of prior knowledge, language convention, levels of meaning, author's purpose, text features)

The really great part about it is you don't have to run out to the library, ask around, or go to the bookstore to find these books to complete the resources! They will send them to you! However, if you do not complete a resource on a book, they will ask you to send the book back.
