My Students

My students used to love the listening center, but since we only have 4 books on CD they no long want to listen. They want to be challenged with new books on CD!

My students are at the critical age when it is important to be engaged in reading everyday.

These books will make listening to reading more fun and introduce them to new stories! No more listening to the same story over and over again, this will bring new life to our listening center!

My Project

These dozen books on tape will be used in the classroom everyday for years to come. We share resources on our grade level so by giving to this project you will support over 80 first grade students. Help drive the love of reading by giving to this special project!

Hearing fluent reading and following along is a great way to improve reading fluency in beginning readers!

This project is sure to bring new life to our listening center and encourage students to read everyday!
