My Project

I am requesting several sets of classroom headphones for my students. This year, each student was provided their very own chrome book for use with several different computer programs. We have 26 students and having them all on the computer at one time is hard, especially when they are trying to listen to their computers and all the computers are talking at once.

I feel that providing students with headphones will help the students learn more efficiently.

I am also asking for a place to store the headphones. So I have asked for a shoe organizer so that each student can have their own slot for the headphones.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
