My Project

I work in a school district where children are not exposed to literacy at home as much as they are technology. I am trying to create a more updated literacy corner and listening center to help support the students in my classroom.

The children love using our listening center but we need new books.

The children will be able to use the supplies that I order to help promote literacy in the classroom with the use of new books on CD, some fresh new books from two of our favorite authors and a couple of flexible seats to support our students. This will help promote their language and literacy in other parts of their school day as well such as academic content.
