I know that we had already discussed this last we but I've been using it all summer at my summer camp. I absolutely love it. Storyline Online was created by the Screen Actors Guild Foundation. The website is fantastic. It allows the children, or students in our case, to listen an view the book being read by some one famous whom they may recognize. That just the intriguing thing about this website.
The story recording include the actual illustrations from the book but also commendatory from the reader. When I view The Bad Case of Stripes with my children at work the first week I was very impressed. Sean Astin does an excellent job drawing the children into the story while, incorporating something interesting about himself. Some of my children at work actually wanted to try eating lima beans but we weren't having them for lunch so they were disappointed.
I also really like the lesson plan ideas and activities that are included with every story. This website is really a great way to open students up to technology and a new and fun way to present literature. I think that most higher elementary students would enjoy creating their own reading video to present to kindergartens or preschool classes.
