Crime novels, flexible seating, and headphones -
My students have asked for crime-related books all year. These books will meet that request and show them that their opinions matter! They love to get into groups and discuss books, and a flexible seating option will really allow them to engage in face-face peer discussions about what they're reading. Research shows that reading aloud helps improve reading comprehension and fluency. The classroom headphone set will give my students the opportunity to follow read-along passages. The headphones will also benefit special education students that are utilizing online learning programs to reinforce classroom lessons. The headphones will allow these students to work at their own pace without the sounds that may be distracting to others.
