My Project

My students are the most amazing first graders! They work hard, help others, and are great role models for all. This year, my county (title 1 school) received new iPads through a technology grant, but they are not able to use regular headphones because these iPads do not have a headphone jack. This causes issues when my students are taking state assessments because they are not able to hear just their iPad. These headphones would help tremendously! The flexible seating will allow them to have a choice in the way they complete assignments because they can do it comfortably. All of the resources in this wishlist would be used daily!
