Help me give my students headphones. The students have severe cognitive and social delays that can cause learning difficult. They work very well using tablets, and with headphones, they can listen to the instructions more clearly.

My Project
Hello! I have a class of students with special needs. The students have cognitive, social and behavioral needs that can make learning difficult. The best way these students learn is by using tablets. Tablets allow them to focus and use videos to learn functional and daily living skills. Headphones will help the students greatly to focus it on what is being presented him through tablets.
In addition, the students are in a band where they are learning how to play musical instruments.
Some of the students can use headphones to allow them to listen to the music and learn the songs that are being played.
Headphones would be a great asset for these students to help them to learn various subjects at school and in the community.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
