Access to Books for All
Funded Jan 23, 2022
Thank you for your help in obtaining MP3 players for my classroom. Your contribution has helped several of my struggling readers to complete their Reading Circle books. They are able to more fully engage within their groups and focus on the story rather than sentence deconstruction.
I was able to download all 12 books that my classes are currently reading in their groups to each MP3 player, and there is still plenty of storage space left. They have expanded the level of accessibility in my classroom and are user-friendly and convenient.
Students have most frequently used the MP3 players in class to help minimize distractions as they read. A few students have used them at home to read larger portions of the book than they would be able to on their own. The MP3 players have been a great and irreplaceable tool.”
With gratitude,
Ms. Burrows
This classroom project was brought to life by Utah State Board of Education.

Reading at home is one of the primary struggles facing my students. In both my Reading and Language Arts classes, my students participate in Literature Circles where they read a book of their choice in small groups. I encourage students to choose a book that interests them over a book that is strictly on their reading level. As a result, some students struggle to keep up with reading at the same pace as other members of their group. Access to an MP3 player loaded with the audio of a variety of books will help more students to stay engaged with their groups and complete their books. One of the primary goals of Literature Circles is to give students a positive experience reading independently. The more success they have with their assigned book, the more likely they are to want to repeat that experience with another book. These small MP3 players do not require an internet connection. Students can check out these devices to use at home for the duration of Lit Circles.
