Bring Books Alive

My students need a listening center to listen to books on tape during guided reading.

I teach a hard-working class of 20 fourth graders. Our 4th grade honors class is at a charter school that serves students from low income areas and works to give them the same opportunities and education as students in wealthier areas.

Our school has just expanded from being solely a middle school to including all of elementary. This has caused some financial growing pains. We do not have the funding for all of the supplies that classrooms would like. This is especially true for higher priced technology equipment.

My class needs a listening center. I own several book sets that include a book on tape/cd, but nothing to play them on. Many of my students need help with their reading fluency, and reading along with books on tape would help them in that area. It would also allow students to experience literature at a higher reading level than their current one. Both uses will help my students become better readers, increasing their fluency and comprehension skills.

Your help can give my students a greater appreciation for reading. This can help create a class of life long learners and readers.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
