Focusing on Individual Learning

Help me give my students the ability to focus on their individual learning using the headphones while they use their school tablet so the headphones can cancel out the outside distractions going on around them.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Santoro's classroom raised $197

My Project

I work at a school district that supplies tablets that work at times but the district doesn't supply headphones for the students. Many of my students can't afford headphones or do not come to school with headphones meanwhile the district has online assessments the students must take throughout the school year.

It is challenging for students to take online assessments or work on educational websites on their academic level while they hear their classmates volume of their tablet.

With a class set of headphones, my students will be able to focus on their individual learning as well as focus when when taking the mandated online district assessments throughout the school year.
