DIY Listening Center...

Next up on the lesson plan is creating a listening center for my classroom.  I have always wanted a listening center but to purchase one could cost up to $190 just for the equipment!  That does NOT include the recorded stories. 

Are. You. Kidding. Me?


So, since purchasing a listening center is CLEARLY not a option I am in the process of making one thanks to this
awesome-sauce post I found on Pinterest.


I followed the steps this fabulous teacher has posted and it couldn’t be easier.  My goal is to record 9 stories each month and display them in a large pocket chart like this one.




  I am so fortunate to have iPads in my classroom!  I plan on placing 3 iPads with headphones in the pocket chart as well.  Students can scan the QR code with an iPad and find a snuggly spot in the room to listen to the story!  I plan on implementing this center on the first week of school so I will update you all on how it goes!
