In the spirit sharing how much we value and love books, I wanted to share The Fantastic Flying Books of Mr. Morris Lessmore. This Academy Award winning animated short is an adaptation of William Joyce’s book, which is available in our library under the same title (call number: E JOY). The video has no spoken words, which allows all our students regardless of language level access to its content. It might be a little scary in the very beginning for ECers depending on the class. You could fast forward through it (from 1:10 to 2:39). If you have a desire to use this or other videos in your class, you can read Using Video to Teach Comprehension Strategies and Thinking Routines
