Due to the fact that many of my students do not have access to books at home and rely on our school library to check out high-quality books, it is my duty to give them opportunities to read valuable literature. It is essential for my students to be able to read about characters that relate to them. It is also imperative that I am exposing them to books on empathy and tolerance. Character development is crucial to a positive classroom culture. The headphones will help my students be able to listen to reading in an engaging online reading program called Raz Kids. It helps them focus on the sounds of words read without interruption and provides a model of fluent reading. Audio books also give them an important introduction to listening — a skill that they must master in order to learn to read.
