Listening centers for primary grades

Are you looking for a way to revamp your Listening Centers for primary grades? Do you remember (or are you still in) the days of rewinding cassette tapes or purchasing a set of books for all of your students and then trying to store them? 

Well not anymore!!

QR Codes allow you students to easily access the read alouds in your listening center without all of the headache C.D. players and class sets of books can give. 

How Do QR Codes Work in listening centers?

The QR Codes are SO easy to use! With a QR Code listening center, your students will use any smart device (iPad, iPhone, Android) to scan a special QR Code that takes them to a story read aloud online. Here’s a step-by-step breakdown of how easy it is to assemble your listening center using QR Codes..

First, print out the codes.

Next, download a QR Code Reader app.  such as this one from Tiny Lab.

Last, have students scan the QR Codes and start listening to books!

 BAM! Now you’re students have hundreds of books right at their fingertips!

(Many newer iPhones and iPads can  even scan QR Codes directly from their cameras!)

“Won’t My Students Get Distracted in the listening center if They’re Online?”

I know you want the best for your students and you may be thinking, “Won’t my students get distracted if they’re listening to books online?” 

We’ve all had those moments where we found students waaaaay off from a site they were supposed to be on.  Here’s what one teacher had to say about that:

Each book is filtered to remove ads and inappropriate content, so your students are just viewing the story and nothing else. Within each set of books, I’ve also included YouTube Links for you to use as well.

 These QR Code Read Alouds will help you create a listening center your students will beg to come to. Bonus, it wont take you hours to set up or maintain.
