The Snap and Read Extension - Have texts read out loud!
Snap and Read is a GREAT tool that will read ANY web based text out loud to you. It also has features that allow you to change the readability of any text - that means it will take the complicated words in a text and substitute them with simpler words. Snap and Read will also translate digital texts - a great study tool for Spanish, French or German classes, and a must-have if you're learning English. Before you start using Snap and Read, you'll need to stop by the library so we can sign you up for an account. |
