MULTILINGUAL LEARNERS

Ebooks for every voice

World languages fill our homes, our hallways and our classrooms. But supplying engaging, high quality books in all those languages? That can be a challenge.

Sora is the multilingual reading platform that helps you support every student.

Built for real classrooms

In the U.S., more than 1 in 5 K–12 students speak a language other than English at home, and roughly 5.2 million are formally identified as English Learners (ELs).

Help your students thrive with:

Popular authentic and translated texts
Immersive, curriculum world language titles
Content available across formats, genres and reading levels

Plus, Sora offers a multilingual interface, built in translation tools and easy-to-use filters, so students can read independently in the language they know best.

Over 100 world languages at their fingertips

Sora offers an unmatched catalog of titles available in:

Spanish
Simplified & Traditional Chinese
French
Italian
German
Japanese
Korean
Portuguese
Russian
And many more

No matter what language your students speak or study, Sora is ready to support them.

Why educators love Sora

Twenty-one percent of our students speak a language other than English at home and, in total, there are twenty-two different, non-English languages spoken at our students’ homes. Because of the school’s focus, the library cannot maintain collections in Spanish, Urdu, French, Russian, Tibetan, etc. Here, too, Sora is helpful. In addition to ebooks, audiobooks and magazines available in multiple languages, students can use Chrome extensions to translate any Sora ebook into their home language.
