Ipod Listening Centers

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Schmidt's classroom raised $868

This project is fully funded

My Students

Listening to books on a Cd bring stories to life. Children love to listen to stories with the fun voices and sound effects.

We are kindergarten students who love listening to stories!

We would like to update our old listening center with cassette players and tapes to I-pods with headphones. Stories come to life when we are able to listen to them. We love to learn, love books and love technology!

My Project

Listening is an integral part of kindergarten. Having an updated listening center that we can listen to all sorts of good literature will encourage our love of books and reading. Listening to stories will boost our confidence, improve test scores, and encourage of love a reading from an early age.

Listening centers are an integral part of building a life long learner.

Tape players are becoming obsolete and we need to update our classroom technology. I-pod listening centers will encourage and support literacy in our classroom.
