Terrific Books on Tape

My students need 12 books on CD, including "Field Full of Horses" and "Gentle Giant Octopus".

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Jasewicz's classroom raised $152

This project is fully funded

This will be my third year as a general education teacher in a high needs district. My fourth grade students are in need of many materials to enrich the learning in our classroom.

My students love our listening center and it is one of their favorite centers. However, the problem is that I do not have many age appropriate books on tape for our listening center. I have checked out many from the library but there doesn’t seem to be enough that are developmentally appropriate to last throughout the school year. That is why I am asking for books on tape sets for my classroom

Our classroom needs 12 different picture books. Each book comes with a cassette tape or CD so that students can listen to the story as they read along. Being able to listen to the books as they read along will help raise the students comprehension, listening skills, and fluency.

Books on tape would make a tremendous difference in our classroom. By donating you will provide a gift that will last a lifetime. Thank you for considering us. We greatly appreciate all of your support.
