Classroom Supplies

Help me give my students supplies to increase their focus and concentration. In addition, we would love some supplies to create beautiful projects the students can be proud of!

My Project

My classroom is in need of supplies to better support my students. A lot of the content these days in online and a lot of the headphones my students have are broken or damaged. If the students are not able to use headphones for their digital content, they are not fully able to focus and understand the information. In addition, testing is online most of the time these days and good headphones means less distractions on things like loose cords or tiny borrowed ear buds. In addition, many of my students have been asking for noise cancelling headphones to be able to focus better in the classroom, particularly when it comes to writing. I would like to be able to accommodate these requests. I am also asking for construction paper and paint to make the students' projects something they can be proud of making and presenting.
