My Project

In today's classroom, technology is key to success. The students in my district take individualized lessons on their tablets and assess three times a year on the same devices. Without headphones, it can be very hard for students to concentrate. With the headphones, the students will be able to stay focused while following along to online instruction. It allows the classroom to stay quiet during RTI, which allows their teacher to be able to pull small groups for assessments or for more individualized practice.

It is my goal for this project to be funded by the next school year.

Being able to start out the year with a fresh pair of headphones will allow the students to perform their best on their beginning of the year assessments.

My students are special because they live in a rural district, with minor funds that are allocated to the classroom. They come to school knowing that their teachers are doing their best to make sure that all of their needs are met so they can be successful in the classroom. They try hard and deserve the best.
