ASU America Reads
2 episodes
ASU America Reads is a literacy series from Arizona State University's tutoring program, where a tutor sits down one-on-one with young viewers and walks them through a single reading or speaking skill at a time. Each short episode is a follow-along: the tutor talks straight to the child, gathers a few simple materials, and models the skill step by step so a class can copy it. The style is calm and homemade rather than flashy, which keeps the focus on the learning. Teachers reach for it when they want a quiet, standards-based warm-up or reteach for kindergarten and early-elementary students in describing, reading, and language.
