UPDATE: Just came across Barnes & Noble's Online Storytime which also has some free read aloud videos! Check it out here --> Barnes & Noble Online Storytime
So I've come across some sites and YouTube videos that have read-aloud picture books with an accompanying video. I've used these on the SmartBoard at times when we don't have enough time for a lesson, but do have enough time to fit in a story. Sometimes it's good to switch it up with read-alouds, and some of these options have great videos (which allows all students to see the illustrations) to go along with the story. They'll feel as though they are watching a movie or a show, when in fact, they are being a read a story! I also found that this works well at times when the students are tired or riled up (for example: after a field trip or outside play) to get them back in "school mode." Enjoy this list of videos and feel free to add your own in the comments!
