My Project

The materials that I have requested are specifically to help students focus and to reduce anxiety in testing.

From my experience over the ear headphones help students to focus on their work and not what is going on around them.

I have one specific child this year who ended up bringing in his own over the ear headphones. Previously he had a hard time focusing and would be distracted by those around him. There has been a noticeable difference in him staying on task. I got enough headphones to almost cover every student in my grade.
