Having access to audiobooks has been a game changer. Students who may struggle to read a book independently can listen while following along with the text, allowing them to access engaging books, build vocabulary and comprehension, and participate confidently in conversations with their classmates. Instead of feeling frustrated or left behind, these students are able to experience the joy and success of finishing books alongside their peers.\r\n\r\nMost importantly, my students are becoming excited about reading. They look forward to book group time, recommend books to one another, and are discovering stories they truly love.\r\n\r\nI am incredibly grateful to the DonorsChoose Community for putting books, technology, and opportunities into the hands of my students.
