My Project

My class of first graders are craving music and stories. They want to listen and learn each day and choose to go to the listening center each morning during their free time.

I want to open the minds of my students to the world around them through beautiful stories and fun engaging movement songs.

First graders need to be immersed in language throughout the day. And they love to have a fun and silly time listening to the stories and adventures of multiple characters.

Help me make my classroom come alive through my listening center!
