Help me give my students access to text. These reader pens will give my non-readers motivation. They will be assessed for dyslexia but this process takes time and at the middle school level time is of essence.
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Garcia's classroom raised $652

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
My students come from a non-reading background and for some they were thought to have intellectual difficulties. However, when they hear written language read out loud they respond with insight. My students light up and make connections that reveal comprehension beyond a basic level.
The Reader Pen is a really clever device that my students can use independently to develop their literacy skills and enable them to access difficult text.
They can use it to scan the text from a book, exam question or other written text and it reads the text back to them!
My students receive speech and language therapy and I am their therapist. Our focus is language at the middle school level. We work with school standards but decoding is a challenge. While they are learning to read the reader pens will scaffold and motivate.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
