Read Along Stories Sample Clip

Here is a sample from Rock N Learn Read Along Stories. Students enjoy reading along with four classic tales written at a second-grade level. Fun, simple animation provides entertainment, but does not distract young learners from following along with the words on screen. After each story, students are rewarded by reading and singing a cool, rockin song that reviews the story and presents more challenging words and fun, animated characters.\r

Students enjoy following the bouncing ball to read and sing along.\r

One of the best ways to give young learners practice with reading is to offer them classic stories they can read over and over. This type of literature-based approach not only provides practice with a familiar story, but also helps children learn how to use contextual clues as they read for meaning. With this video, students can practice reading skills just about anywhere. No book is necessary, and students read right along with the words on screen. \r

Read Along Stories can be particularly useful as a reward activity or as a way for teachers to provide extra practice for a specific group of students. It is also extremely useful for students that are not native English speakers, such as those in ESL programs. Students practice reading and build their vocabulary.\r
