Inspiring Readers With Wonderbooks

Mohawk Trails is expanding their WONDER through books funded by Everwise Foundation!

Inspiring Readers With Wonderbooks - MOHAWK TRAILS ELEMENTARY

Grant Recipients:  Katie Davis, Catherine Pearsall, Stacy Aldea

Audiobooks strengthen students' vocabulary, background knowledge, working memory, and comprehension, while graphic novels improve students' inferential thinking and build schema.  Wonderbooks combine the two formats into one portable audiobook-book hybrid.  With this grant, Mohawk Trails students are able to have access to a new resource that will grow their reading skills.

Media Specialist, Katie Davis (pictured on right) - was so excited to use these books with students!  Jenn Penix, CEF executive director was able to visit 1st Grade teacher, Jennifer Marshall-Aletto's classroom to learn more about this grant and see it in action.  

Everwise Foundation funded this Grant for the Spring, 2024 cycle.  Please go to our Grants In Action page to see more grants making progress around our CCS schools!
