Spanish Leveled Library
Funded Sep 22, 2019THANK YOU for donating to this project. My students will benefit greatly from the Spanish books. They will be able to read books at their "just right" reading level, and, therefore, improve their Spanish reading skills. You are truly making a difference in their lives as they work towards being bilingual and bi-literate. Thank you again!”
With gratitude,
Mrs. Juarez
Listening to Literature Anywhere I Want
Funded Jan 26, 2018I want to thank you again for donating to my classroom project "Listening to Literature Anywhere I Want." I set up a listening center in my classroom supplied with the portable CD players, headphones, books, and CDs. The students are allowed to choose a book with CD from the listening center, take it anywhere they want in the classroom, and begin to listen to the story! I have books available in both English and Spanish.
My first graders are excited about listening to stories on the portable CD player. They enjoy the storytelling and the flexibility to sit anywhere in the classroom. I have two students in particular who have benefited from the listening center. Noah, who loves books but is reading below grade level, has made an improvement of 3 reading levels since we received the portable CD players! Peter, who has difficulties settling down to the routines of the classroom, has been able to sit quietly for longer periods of time while he listens to a story.
Thank you again for being a part of my students' reading journey!”
With gratitude,
Mrs. Juarez
