I hear the tonie box being used and the kids reading along with it or even sitting quietly and listening to the newest tonie I added for the week. I greatly appreciate the smiles you have made by allowing my students to enjoy the reading center. The reading center was once a place many hated to go to. Why? It was challenging. They couldn't read. Nothing to keep their focus. But not anymore thanks to you. They smile, laugh, get excited for the center and I even have had to break up some fights, minor ones. They truly find enjoyment in the tonie box and all the newest additions to the box.
