This teacher needs your help!

Mrs. Cavanaugh from Ellensburg, WA is requesting technology through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Listening Center

My students need 8 MP3 players because our new curriculum comes with audio books.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Cavanaugh's classroom raised $367

This project is fully funded

My Students

Wouldn't it be wonderful to enjoy a good audio book?

My students love to interact with literature.

With our new materials, it would be a shame if they couldn't take advantage of the audio books that came with it. I currently teach the struggling readers in fourth grade and find it difficult to encourage them to read. Audio books naturally encourage students to interact with literature.

My Project

Books that would be out of their reach because of challenging content would now be attainable. With these players kids can enjoy books that they would otherwise pass over. This would allow my students to have more choices in the books that they read.

Reading is such a valuable skill and any chance I have to enhance the experience is beneficial to struggling or reluctant readers.

Please consider funding this project. You would be helping fourth graders become stronger readers.
