Blocking out the Noise

My Project

While it would be ideal for each student to bring their headphones and for them to last the entire school year, neither of these things usually happens. My students need these headphones to be successful. Many parents cannot afford to provide their child with headphones.

My students need headphones that are comfortable and durable for daily use.

In our classroom, we use headphones daily during intervention time. The use of headphones engages and empowers learners, as well as helping to block out unnecessary noise and distraction. Please help purchase new headphones that fit students comfortably and aid in supporting my students with disabilities.
