Help Mrs. Irick

First grade students at Marshall Elementary School are in desperate need of a listening library. A listening library center would allow them to improve their fluency as readers, increase their vocabulary, and enhance their communication skills. It would also serve as a reading buddy for selected groups of my 17 students during independent reading time. This will definitely benefit struggling readers who need to hear words read repeatedly. A donation via DonorsChoose will allow my auditory learners to be exposed to a community of authors, by providing them with a variety of literature on compact discs or cassettes with books, a listening center, and a storage area for future use. Students will definitely be able to respond to others when they're asked, "Do you hear what I hear?", as they enjoy listening to wonderful stories with their peers.
