My Students

My students are eager to learn and want to succeed. Many of them do not receive much support or do not have many resources at home to be very successful, so it's my job to provide that for them at school. Overall, my class is full of very visual learners who love to read new books and enjoy playing a variety of learning games. These resources will go a long way to making sure that my students have a fun and engaging school year!

My Project

My students love to listen to books being read to them. Unfortuantely, many of them do not have books at home or aren't read books while at home. During school hours is the only time that they are able to listen to stories being read with correct expression and fluency.

By adding these extra CD players and headphone splitters, I will be able to ensure that the most number of students are reached and are able to listen to books being read.

Students enjoy listening to read aloud stories, and in many cases, I have the physical books that they can read along with the read aloud CDs!
