The Pen That Reads

My students need the C-Pen Reader Exam to help them to successfully increase their reading level progress. Those students who struggle with reading need the help these pens can provide them.

My Students

My students come to school to learn the essentials to become successful adults. They may come from Spanish speaking homes or English speaking homes, but each and every one of my students come to school to learn.

Our students strive to do the best they can by challenging and pushing themselves to do well.

My students come from very diverse backgrounds, which makes our classroom the perfect place for debates and discussions, and hands-on activities as the diversity leads to different views on each topic we cover throughout the year.

My Project

The C-Pen Exam Reader will be used by my low readers who may benefit from hearing the story or any type of text audibly.

The C-Pen Exam Reader will enable my students to hear the word by gliding the C-Pen Exam Reader across the sentence in a textbook, a quiz, novel, article, newspaper, just to name a few.

The C-Pen Exam Reader will allow my students to see some success in their reading progress and will hopefully increase their wants to read.

The more they read and hear the words, the more their interest may peak in reading a book, a magazine or even an article.
