Little Brains Hard at Work!

Help me give my students some learning centers to help them excel in Reading and Math. They need new headphones to enable their skills on the computer.

My Students

I have a very cute but diverse group of first graders. Their abilities range from non readers to great readers. This is my second year teaching first grade and I would love a better library and more learning centers for my students to learn from. I also need more head phones for them to do more reading games or lessons on line.

My Project

Learning centers are critical in teaching both Reading and Math. Reading centers are key to early readers minds by building comprehension from letters to full words. Math centers develop shape recognition, addition, and subtraction principles. Having learning centers will help my first graders build the foundation they need to be great students for the rest of their lives. The headphones bought will be used daily in these learning centers to help utilize computer and auditory learning. Thanks for your support in my students education and helping them learn and grow.
