As a special education teacher, I serve students with a variety of learning and behavioral needs. One of the greatest challenges we face is the competition of screen-based entertainment, which, unfortunately, takes up much of our students' free time. These Kindle Fires will not only provide access to a greater library of books for students, but they will also serve as a fluency tool for teachers as we complete progress monitoring. It has been said that it only takes one good book to get someone hooked on reading. Thank you for your support in helping our students experience what it is like to get lost in a good book.
