If you’re looking for a fun read-aloud site, you might want to visit https://www.ryanandcraig.com/read-alouds . There are currently several Christmas stories available on their site, but they have a lot of other options. Ryan and Craig give a fun introduction and then read the book aloud, showing the actual images. This site is not storing their videos on YouTube, so that means students are able to view the videos independently on their Chromebooks. Thanks goes to Sheryl Forsman for sharing this and testing out the Chromebook option.

If you’re using Google Classroom you can add a link as an assignment or use the “Material” option making it easy for students to find it.  If you’d like some accountability, post a Question asking your students which book they listened to and what they liked about it, then post a link to the site or a particular read aloud story to the Question by using the “link” option.

Using SeeSaw? Create an activity that includes the link to the site, and ask them to use the Drawing tool to draw a picture from the story.

Want to keep it simple? Just bookmark the site in your Class Google account or post it to your eBoard so students can access it anytime.

Do the teachers in your school love this so much that they want to add it to the Chromebook Launch Page? (The page the comes up when students click on the Home icon on their Chrome Browser) Just email me and let me know and I can add it.
