My Project

I teach pre-k. We are learning pre-reading skills in pre-k. With portable DVD players, we will be able to listen to books and also read the words with the caption on. We will be able to work on vocabulary, comprehension and story retell. With six DVD players, I will be able to have up to six children at a time having stories read to them.

Help my class with six DVD players for our library center so that we can work on vocabulary, comprehension and story retell in pre-k.

I love to read books to my students. With the portable DVD players, students will be able to have more books read to them each and every day. Any help would be so awesome.
