My Project

Our students have one to one laptops but have no headphones. When it comes time for students to listen to something on their computers it because very chaotic in the classroom with 30 computers competing with each other. The headsets will allow students to be able to have a quieter learning environment while working on their computers. Students hard of hearing will benefit from the sound amplifier because they will be able to hear instructions. The aquarium is for student's social and emotional health as a way to relieve stress by watching fish swim around.

My students' learning will greatly benefit from these supplies.

Grades 6-8
