My Project
Third grade is a pivotal year for literacy learning--this is the year that students have to switch from learning to read to reading to learn. After three years of learning to read, though, some students definitely still struggle with the task of reading. Learning to read is hard work, and many of my third graders are stuck with books that are, often, not very interesting. This leaves students who are still learning to read--especially students with disabilities that impact their ability to read--without access to interesting and fun stories.
Enter the Yoto Player--these devices make reading stories that are complex, varied, and appealing to third graders accessible to students that cannot access those stories through the text yet.
As adults, we talk a lot about different ways that we access reading, and many of us enjoy the experience of listening to great audiobooks that make stories we wouldn't otherwise read accessible to us. Why not give students the same opportunity? This project will help students in my class who struggle with the task of reading or have disabilities that impact their reading ability access stories that we know kids love and enjoy--Magic Treehouse, Diary of a Wimpy Kid, Narwhal and Jelly--as audiobooks.
These Yoto Players and Yoto Cards will help provide even more reading options and choices. Just because a student struggles with reading doesn't mean we should gatekeep them from great stories and nonfiction texts. Your donations to this project can help make that a reality for this third grade class!
