Captions and Reading

on
G'morning blogland!!! The other day I was sitting around watching television and I began to think to myself "Dog, you know that you really need to get more involved in reading you know!" So, I turned the captions on and began reading them. My question to you is this:

does reading movie captions count as reading a book?

No, captions reading do not count as reading a book. I've learned a lot of my spanish by reading the captions. But I get my intellectual eading from books and magazines.

Captions have attributed all my lingo, prose, verture to captions and paragraphs that leave you paraplegic. I would have failed cxc english if I didn't have a television

Well... I don't know that it can be counted as a book, but it can't hurt! It is still visual exposure to spelling, word formation - so it must add to literacy in some way. I have used captioning in the past to aid my kids when they were learning the written word - actually wouldn't hurt for me to put it on again for my 8 year old that is having some spelling difficulties.
