I discovered
Storyline Online a few years ago when I was teaching Young English language learners in 3rd grade. I was trying to find English books online that were read aloud to improve their reading, listening and pronunciation skills. My Young Learners loved it because they were popular books they had seen before and they liked seeing the famous actors reading these books.
Storyline Online, is an on-line streaming video program featuring SAG members reading childrens books aloud! Each book includes accompanying activities and lesson ideas. Actors read popular Young learner picture books like "Rainbow Fish", "Stellaluna" and many more. You have the option of having captions on or off which help Young English learners practice listening skills, while being supported by the subtitles. These books have beautiful animated illustrations directly from the book. The Lessons and comprehension activities are great to evaluate students understanding of English and their listening skills.
I have used these videos with Young Learners as well as Adults and have had great success with them.
