We have these "as a resource," and in three years at this school, I've used 
them a handful of times.  They aren't bad for a struggling reader, but they're 
very dependent on your ability to oversee the student using them.  
 
There may be a new & improved version out, but what we have consists of 
recorded stories (very short recordings), blackline masters of the stories, and 
some little games to photocopy.  Perhaps once you get everything copied, it 
would be easier to use, but I felt like I was spending three times as much 
energy in preparing them as the students were using them.  We did use them as 
home support for one ELL student, and I believe her teacher saw some growth.
 
Hope that helps - 
Sarah

Hi all,

My district is investing in Marie Carbo's Recorded Books.  Has anyone had
experience with these, and if so, what do you think?

Thanks,
Colleen
