My Students

My kindergarten students are motivated by listening to stories! Please help my students have a listening center with a CD player and headphones to listen to great stories! Listening to stories, allows my students to hear enthusiastic readers and encourages my students to read using punctuation and enthusiasm! A listening station and books with CD’s will be beneficial for the gifted learners as well as the remedial learners! A listening center in my classroom would really help my students reach their highest potential!

Thank you.

My Project

The listening center with headphones will help my students listen to stories and hear a great reader read stories! The Kindergarteners need to hear good readers! They need to listen to readers that use punctuation correctly and read with enthusiasm! The stories and CD’s are essential to a reading program! All of my learners would benefit and a listening center would be a great station for my children to go to during our literacy center time! My students will love to read along and will be encouraged to read with enthusiasm! Please consider giving to a project that would benefit all of my learners!
