An Ear-Resistible Approach to Reading in Kindergarten

This grant funds updates to the listening centers in Central School Kindergarten classrooms. Listening to stories introduces students to vocabulary above their decoding levels and helps students to develop critical auditory comprehension skills. Each classroom will have a “hub” where students can listen to stories using wireless headphones. This grant will also fund low tables and flexible seating to promote group listening experiences.

Grantees: Mindy Friedman, Danielle Beshar, KellyAnn Trombley
