Neat collection! Some of these I think the kids will get a kick out of. Could be used for listening skills, quite time, etc. Many of these are serials.

Oldies But Goodies (Neat!)
Story Bee (love this)
EFL Classroom 2.0 has a super compilation of “Stories for the Classroom”.
The stories contain audio, text, and pictures. Some are even animated. They play full screen and are very student friendly. All of them would be great for reading/listening centers. Kids will love these stories and want to read them over and over again.
The stories are categorized by level as well as some genres.

I just love Story Bee. Superb stories told by actual storytellers.

I just listened to two stories while cleaning out a “junk” drawer. One made me laugh, the other brought tears to my eyes. I’ve used this with students many times.

I have shared Smories before but used it recently and noticed that more stories have been added. This site is too cute! Kids love it.
Smories features kids reading stories for other kids. Bravo!!!
These would be perfect for filling in a spare moment or two. Quite enjoyable. Great for a listening center too.

Turn your students into decoding detectives for World Braille Day, January 4th!
#elemchat #spedchat #decoding #braille
The American Foundation for the Blind has a nice kids section, Braille Bug, where they can learn about braille through games/puzzles.
Lots of cool decoding activities.
Access the Braille Bug overview for teachers here. Lots of interesting info. I didn’t know that braille was developed by Louis Braille when he was only 15 years old, and that the whole alphabet is based on only six dots.
Educational Ideas…
More sites on Braille!
Visit the Helen Keller Kids Museum online
Helen Keller was an inspiration to me as a child. In fact her story still inspires me. It is absolute proof that everyone can learn. I believe her story is a big factor in why I went into teaching and special education in particular. I’m so happy to see her museum online.

Awesome Audio Stories LiveBinder
1001 Stories from The Story Museum features a great collection of inspirational/folk tales from around the world.
#elemchat #spedchat #audiostories #StoryMuseum #listeningskills
The stories include audio and text that could be printed out for each student as they listen. Many of the stories also include printable story maps. You can search by theme, age of listener, or country of origin. Great for listening center or a quiet time in the classroom.
Not that I’m counting but there are only 100+ stories available that I could see. Not 1001…nonetheless great site. Hopefully more are coming because students will really enjoy these stories.

Check out the rest of the The Story Museum too.

“It’s all free, thanks to the generous storytellers who want to share the spirit and joy of storytelling with you. So sit back, get comfortable, and get ready to go around the world, through time, inside the heart, and above the clouds.”
***I used this last year and my students really liked listening to the stories while they worked on their art projects. I highly recommend Story Bee! Love that it covers ages 4 to 18. Something for everyone. Teachers will enjoy the stories too. I certainly did.
