Help Ms. L.

I teach a diverse kindergarten class with nearly half of my students being ELL (English Language Learners).

We have a tape player and sets of headphones already-all that's missing is a great set of books on tape for my students to listen to.

My kindergarteners will enjoy the opportunity to visit our classroom "listening center" each day to listen and read along with these books on tape. Listening to these books will help my beginning readers improve their literacy skills and help my ELL students as they learn English.

Your help will make it possible for my kindergarteners to learn to read and have fun at the same time.
