My Project

Listening centers are crucial for developing early literacy skills, enhancing comprehension, and vocabulary. They promote phonological awareness, fluency, vocabulary, comprehension, and contextual learning.

Over the past 20 years, my kinders have enjoyed our CD listening area.

The listening area is always a top pick because they love to listen to books. Since my start, I have used tapes to CDs. I’ve been through 5 CD players and two cassette players, and many multiple CDs that are now skipping.

By helping my classroom receive the Tonies listening center, it would considerably upgrade my students' ability to develop their foundational skills through an engaging and user-friendly system.
