My Project

These specific items I'm requesting for my classroom will make a difference in my student's learning because students can listen to audio and videos in their interactive textbook without disturbing others at their own pace. It is my goal that the microphone will amplify the voice of soft-toned speakers in my class and build their confidence during engagement along with amplifying my voice so I do not appear to yell instruction at students. The headphones should result in more work being turned in because students have a tool to focus and drown out distractions (they would be very beneficial to my students or different tiers of support based on their learning ability). My student's perseverance to succeed makes them special.
