Sounds Good!

Funded Nov 10, 2017

I am more than grateful for your support. Before receiving a set of headphones implementing the computer/reading station in my classroom became troublesome. Many students complained of not being able to hear making it an extremely difficult for students to practice reading skills. Being able to practice reading skills through technology is essential; students are able to work on individualized skill at their own pace, receive instant feedback and correct mistakes instantaneously.

Not only are my students engaged in enhancing reading strategies, the students have developed a love of reading. My students have been engaged with audio books as well as independent and shared reading. Some of my students have even volunteered to read to their younger peers during the reading block. The smiles displayed upon my students' faces is priceless. Although headphones may seem like a simple form of technology, it has made a difference in my students' learning.”

With gratitude,
