Most of us remember kindergarten as a fun-filled time of learning through music, sing-alongs and collaborative read-alongs. Because we don't have a listening center, my students don't have that experience, and I don't have the tools to help them develop the listening skills they need for literacy. If you saw them, you would fall in love with them right away. Most of my students live in low income housing or shelters. They are not spoiled, not demanding, not greedy or self-righteous, but as a result of the budget cuts in public education, they are nobody's priority except for mine. Most of my students have never touched a book before coming to my class, nor have they learned to listen to stories or music in a meaningful way. They deserve a chance to develop these skills and the creative potential that grows from them. Please make a difference in my students' education.
