Unfortunately, a lot of my students cannot afford decent headphones. Without the headphones, students are easily distracted by the noises around them and won't be able to hear their programs. With these new headphones, every child will have the opportunity to practice spelling, grammar, and reading with Lexia on their iPads. Lexia is a personalized learning program that will allow students to flourish in Reading/Language Arts. They will also be able to listen to stories, create movies, focus on ST Math, and more! It will allow them to stay on task and focus on their learning. These headphones will provide so much learning!
