Lights! Camera! Action!

I could definitely see my future self introducing new reading techniques and strategies with the help of videos such as these. I believe Mc-Graw-Hill, makers of those textbooks that we love so much (inserts side eye), did an excellent job coming up with these short, introductory sketches. Adding on to last week’s blog, I feel as though lessons like this would help me as a teacher better use the textbook as a resource rather than a bible. The videos are very concise and really entertaining. It would be a great opener especially for those students who may not have any prior knowledge.

    I think this is an awesome source Lainna! It's a great way to portray this information in a way that students will be able to understand while keeping them engaged. It certainly would be more memorable too, rather than just going over textbook definitions. Do they have these types of videos for all subjects? WC 54
