[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Calling bullsh@! on you being a teacher OP. If you were, you’d know that children are not the most reliable narrators. You’d also know how to go about getting a better sense from the teacher themselves. 
[b]All that said, I see teachers relying on videos for read alouds more frequently now than a few years ago. I think part of it is due to resources they developed during virtual instruction and hard copies of books not being available (in classroom/school library) so it’s easier to find a video then look for an alternative title that fits their need. 
Again, if you were a classroom teacher I think you’d understand this. [/b]

This seems like a ridiculous reason/excuse to not read to the kids. [/quote]

Having a video of a book playing with the words displayed gigantically so the whole class can see it too? Awesome. Way better than a teacher reading a book holding it up where the kids can barely see it.  Use your minds folks. There are so many ways technology can help us. Perhaps avoid the reflexive view that all technology must be bad?[/quote]
