My Project

The second graders in my class love to read, and listening to stories is one of their favorite literacy activities! Children love to be read to, and the Yoto is an interactive audiobook to use in our classroom throughout the day.

The Yoto and cards will provide a new listening opportunity for students to listen and follow along with some of their favorite books.

The Yoto also carries cards for mindfulness and calm that can help with all the SEL learning taking place in my classroom.

Listening to fluent readers helps build vocabulary, comprehension, and fluency for these budding readers!
