[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][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]

*Sigh*, what is so hard to understand about it? Teachers do read alouds on a daily basis. However,once in awhile, the book is not available to them physically, so on occasion, they will find a Youtube video of someone that is doing a read aloud. THE HORROR.....

So many people here simply choose not to use their brains and instead just decide something is "bad"when they have no idea what they are talking about. It's embarrassing. [/quote]

It’s not hard to understand, but some people would prefer the teacher just read a physical book. Like, choose a different one.[/quote]

It's like you're not even listening to what people are saying. 99% of the time teachers are reading aloud to their students. Once in awhile, they want to read a book that is relevant to what they are teaching but don't have physical access to the book, so they use a Youtube read-aloud. Hardly the crisis situation you seem to think it is. You sound like a petulant child though.. "like..choose a different one *pouts*" Grow up and join the rest of us in the year 2022, where sometimes (NOT ALWAYS) but once in awhile, we use technology.[/quote]
