Help me give my students Amazon Fire Tablets in protective cases for a listening station in their Library Center and a Tuff Charging Station that will be kept in the Library Center enabling the students to maintain their charge easily.
Our district and campus were affected by Hurricane Harvey. We had several families displaced for extended periods of time, including new students from more severely affected areas. Our district also had to cancel two full weeks of school.
The Read Aloud Listening Station I am seeking to purchase will help close the gaps that Harvey caused by providing technology and opportunities they would not have otherwise.
Our pre-k students are curious and adventurous. They are encouraged to learn through play to develop their social and cognitive skills and gain the self-confidence needed to be successful in life.
My Project
Our students enjoy looking at books in the Library Center; however, adding the Amazon Fire Tablets and QR story codes to the center will enable the students to not only enjoy looking at books but also having them read to the them making it an interactive experience.
Children take great pleasure in listening to stories.
Listening Centers provide opportunities for children to hear multiple fluent readers read stories to them. They also enhance listening skills which are important for learning to read. Students will not only learn to read for pleasure but also pick up valuable skills such as narrative structure, unique language use, and new vocabulary.
The Tuff Charging Station will allow students easy access to the tablets to use with QR story codes. The charging station will also help students to keep the tablets safe and charged when not in use.
