Engaging Today's Youth With an Electronic Listening Center

My Students

My hometown is a small, rural town in Northwest Florida. We are an area where everyone knows and supports each other. I teach 43 fourth grade students of different learning abilities.

This past year our area was devastated by Hurricane Michael and many of my students had their property damaged or lost their homes.

This natural disaster changed us forever!

I would love to fill my classroom with engaging opportunities that will promote their educational and social development. I love being a teacher!

My Project

My students must keep up with the latest advancements in education to spark an interest in reading. Education is changing every day and and the interests of my students are changing too! Students are easily engaged with technology.

Struggling readers will rather listen to an audio book because they are less intimidating than a typical book.

Audio books are easy to use and also provide a model for students to hear others read aloud.

My students already have shown an astonishing interest in independent reading, and this project will only help enrich their experiences.

By donating to our project, you will not only help to improve and increase student reading opportunities, you will ultimately help to increase their academic achievement.
