In the past, I have bought my students dollar store earbuds, and they break or stop working fairly quickly. My hope is that these reliable headphones will fix that problem. In addition, these headphones will enhance the focus for those who need noise blocking mechanisms. Maintaining focus in a classroom of students is a tricky task, and I want to set my students up for success, therefore, my students can wear these headphones even when not plugged into the computer. We are blessed to have one-to-one devices in our classroom, and in hopes to get the most out of listening to reading, recording our voices and engaging in learning, students will need an reliable auditory input. Being a language immersion school, we often interactive and voice recording systems for students to develop their language skills. These headphones have a microphone built into the cord which will help pick up the individual student's voice in a busy classroom. I appreciate your time and enthusiasm to help out classrooms in need, and I know this project will do just that!
