My Students

Our kindergarten students are a beautifully diverse group of learners. Many of our students come to our kindergarten with English as their second language as well diverse socio economic needs. All of these qualities certainly makes our kindergarten a culturally diverse place for learning to happen.

Our students need to have a classroom that's inviting, comfortable and engaging for the best learning to happen.

As kindergarten teachers it's our job to get our students hooked into learning and to make them feel safe and in return they will be engaged learners!

My Project

Students learn best when they are able to get what they need at their level. Each day my kindergarten students engage in center work while I am able to pull small groups for instruction. In these small groups students are able to reach their highest potential.

The headphones would work perfectly to give my students at the technology center the ability to comfortably use the iPads and allow the other groups around them to work without being interrupted.

The addition of the headphones to our classroom would make a huge difference for the learning for the students at all the centers!
