Mrs. Riddle shared with us that this year our Multilingual Education students at Fairwood enjoyed listening to Audiobooks on a Tonie device purchased for students with a grant from the Kent Schools Foundation.

Titles include fiction and nonfiction books that appeal to varied interests and different age groups in our K-5 program. Some of the kids’ favorites are the National Geographic Astronaut book, and the Magic Treehouse series. Another popular title is the Chicka Chicka Boom-Boom book, which helps them learn the alphabet letters and sounds.

Thank you Kent Schools Foundation and Mrs. Riddle for building the love of reading in all our students. πŸ’™
