Instructional Ideas

  • Enlarge and print the story's illustration to display on a bulletin board or over a listening station
  • Send the link home for pupils to listen to for homework in order to complete the next day's learning activity in class
  • Post discussion questions on a classroom blog 

Classroom Considerations

  • Contains minor violent content and inappropriate language 
  • Headphones contain noise and enhance focus when scholars listen at different times

Pros

  • The narrator speaks clearly and at a decent rate for all to follow along
  • Comes with a story summary and transcript

Cons

  • When opened, the webpage displays ads and user comments
