I teach 5th grade and would like a listening center for my students to listen to literature selections as a group during literature circle time. Listening provides a great reading model for them to follow along with.

The children I teach don't have much access to listening to good literature selections. A listening center would give them this opportunity.

A listening center would provide good model readers by listening to great literature books. They would have access to listening to great model readers with a center.

You will make it possible my students to have access to listening to great literature selections using the listening center.
