Can You Hear Me Now? Distance Listening & Speaking

Help me give my students a set of AirPods so I can better communicate with them during hybrid and distance learning.

FULLY FUNDED! Dr. A's classroom raised $334

My Students

I teach eighth-grade students who are in many ways typical middle schoolers: playful, curious, and anxious about the future. Our International Baccalaureate Middle School, is full of young people with varied backgrounds and interests, yet more than half of my students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.

One of the things I enjoy most about my students is their capacity to care about each other and the world around them.

My students show me every day that they don't care how much I know, until they know how much I care about them. One of my great joys as a teacher is getting to know and care for my students.

My Project

Distance and hybrid learning requires new forms of communicating. Students around the country are now experiencing learning through screens, even when in the classroom part-time. Staying safe while communicating requires the use of new technologies.

With the addition of these headphones to our virtual classroom, students will be able to more effectively communicate with me and hear and understand our math curriculum.

I don't currently have or use a good quality set of headphones or ear buds for distance and hybrid learning, so using the AirPods will be a game changer.
