As research-based best practices suggest, following along to stories read-aloud greatly improves students' reading as it models fluency, accuracy, and expression at a steady rate. These components are crucial to engaging students in the adventures of texts.
Helping our classroom with the funds for this listening center would allow groups of students to listen to stories being read to them during literacy centers while they closely follow along with the words on the pages. A listening center will develop their reading level, push them to grade level texts, and set them on a path for future success as their love for reading is enhanced.
