Mrs. Reed William Gay Early Child Center
McAlester, OK Grades PreK-2

My classroom is filled with bright and eager to learn Pre-Kers that come from a high poverty area. We are very busy four-year-olds that love books and love to be read to. This will give us another way to hear books and open our minds to learning.

My students love to look at books and be read to, but we don't always have time to read every book they would like to hear. With their own listening center they can choose a book and use the headphones to listen on their own. Plus, this gives them another way to "read" a book. This is the best time in their lives to set the foundation for a love of books and reading.

I need a mobile listening center that I can move to different locations in the classroom along with some new storytelling kits, where they can be hands-on as they are listening to the story. This will be very beneficial in my classroom since space is limited.

With your generosity you will make it possible for my students in the class to be able to choose a book on their own and to enjoy the story so much that they want to hear it again and again.
