With these headphones, students will be able to be successful and focus on their learning without being distracted by others. Being in a low income school, I would also like to help take the financial burden off of the parents for headphones as school supplies, as quality ones are expensive and the inexpensive ones do not last all year. The students will use these headphones in a variety of ways in the classroom. In Mathematics, students thrive in a program called Dreambox where it is individualized at each level for each student. It makes learning math specialized for them, fun and game-like. For reading, students would use these headphones in many diverse reading apps. They listen to books, poetry, challenge their word work skills, create stories, and work on all foundational skills needed to become a better reader. Some of these apps even allow students to speak into the microphone to listen and record how they read, which allows them to self monitor their reading.
