Headphones for All

My students need these headsets with a microphones to be able to utilize the amazing program we have called Imagine Learning. This program is individualized to the students based on their reading ability.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Degon's classroom raised $238

My Students

I work with amazing third graders. I work in a classroom with low income students who just need some love and support. The area is low income and Title 1. A lot of my students have very little support at home or even internet. They struggle with getting to school daily cleaned and well fed.

My students try so hard to meet the expectations I set for them.

I do not let them think that because of the way they live, that it is the only way. I give them hope, love and a safe place to learn and be for the day. I love my students very much.

My Project

The students will be able to use the headphones for the multiple programs we have access to during the year. One is Imagine learning where they need to listen to individualized instruction as well as speak into the headset for parts of the program.

I need each student to have a headset so that they can grow in the reading gaps.

We also have math and science online tools they could use the headsets for. These programs can read the textbooks to the students along with videos for the different topics. A lot of my students don't have internet at home so we try to utilize the time in the classroom.
