My Project

Toniebox and its accompanying Tonies figurines will create an interactive and engaging environment for my students, offering them the opportunity to develop key auditory skills, improve listening comprehension, and foster a love for storytelling. This resource will help cater to different learning styles, particularly benefiting auditory learners, and provide a fun way to reinforce language and literacy concepts in a screen-free setting!

My goal is to provide students with a high-quality, engaging, and interactive tool that will support their language development, listening skills, and overall love of learning.

Specifically, I aim to use the Toniebox to enhance their listening comprehension, storytelling abilities, and foster a more independent and self-directed learning experience, while also making learning fun and accessible!!

Thank you for your consideration and donations!
