The Benefits of Video Read-Alouds
When reading comes to life onscreen, students engage in deeper, more active learning. Through this partnership, Symbaloo and The Reading Corner empower classrooms to:
- Strengthen reading fluency and vocabulary through narrated stories
- Foster comprehension with visual and audio cues that aid understanding
- Encourage independent exploration and self‑paced learning
- Support differentiated instruction for diverse reading levels
This connection between storytelling and technology provides teachers with a flexible way to inspire every reader.
Furthermore, classical music is deliberately used in the videos as music and language develop in the same areas of the brain in children. Music also has the power to create a sense of calmness.
