iTune Into Reading
Funded Jan 31, 2012I wish you could have been in our classroom when the iPod was delivered. The students were cheering, and their faces were beaming with excitement. They still get animated each day when we use the iPod in the classroom. I purchased two audiobooks myself and was fortunate to get another DonorsChoose project funded with more audiobooks. My students can now benefit from reading along with fluent readers on the iPod. It's amazing!
Originally, I had the intention of solely using the iPod to help the students with their reading, but the iPod has also become a tool in so many other ways. Listening to classical music during our art projects, taking pictures of our science experiments, and listening to a variety of music during our breakfast time has been a uniting and stimulating experience for my students. Thank you again for your generosity in helping inspire my fifth grade class to love reading and learning.

Funded Dec 15, 2007Thank you so much for your thoughtful donation. My students and I will get great use out of the whiteboards, and we are so excited to try them when we get back from winter break! This will make such a difference in my students' education. With tools like these we, as teachers, have better opportunities for making the learning meaningful for the students. Thank you again for your generous donation.
Sincerely,
