Buzz, Zoom, Ding! Help My Students Not Get Distracted!

Help me give my students a quiet and peaceful environment to be successful!

My Project

With 30 students in a classroom and having to complete work online, it can get very loud and students can get easily distracted in the classroom.

We start each school year off with enough headphones for students, but as the year goes on, headphones get broken!

I want all students to be able to reach their goals and be as successful as they can every day.

With your help, not only can my students have new earbuds so they can focus and work independently, but I can also reward them with a small fruit treat throughout the day! I have also requested facial tissues to help keep our students healthy.

Any donation to this project could make such a huge impact on a second grader's education! I appreciate you taking the time to read this project!
