This video, in my opinion, is a lesson in what NOT to do when teaching children to read. I just thought that the activity was too chaotic and too loud for any real comprehension to actually take place. I would have liked to see the teacher ask the students questions about what they just read. I can't imagine that the majority of them really grasped what they just read with all of the noise and activity going on. It would have been interesting to have hard data about this method. Does it actually work?
I think that this video is proof that you can put anything on the Internet. However, as a teacher you must use discrimination. Just because the video is there on the Internet, doesn't mean that you should actually follow it as a good example. I wouldn't use this method when I become a teacher.
