I teach summer school and I use BookFlix.  This pertains to students in lower grades usually PreK-3.  I do have low functioning high school students that love to navigate through BookFlix and listen to all the different stories.  I use this for Reading Comprehension.  In BookFlix, you can have the story read to the student.  The student can then follow along and know what word the speaker is on because it highlights the word being read.  I like the fact that the book is being read to the student because sometimes when my students hear it and see it on the screen they understand the story better.  Then when the book is over, I ask them questions about what the book was about to see if they were understanding the book.  Also, the students know how to navigate and find BookFlix so if they have free time then can have a book read to them.  It is also nice because everyone can pick a different book.
