I work in a culturally diverse school, where students from many backgrounds come together to learn. Our school embraces diversity and promotes the well being of all students, both academically and emotionally. Students come to school knowing they will be valued as individuals and appreciated for who they are. We strive to meet the needs of all learners every day.
As we embrace the diversity of our student population, children feel empowered to have a voice in their learning objectives and outcomes.
This voice and choice enable students to feel invested in their learning. My students come to school excited to learn, enthusiastic and motivated. As a school, students and teachers value the amazing community we have established.
My Project
Every year students are asked to provide a pair of headphones for use with technology in the classroom and in the computer lab. This has increasingly become a financial burden for many of my students. This burden, coupled with the constant breaking of the cheap headphones that come in every year, make for great frustrations in the classroom.
My students use headphones daily for a wide variety of reasons.
Some of these reasons include listening to audio books, watching educational videos, and taking state and district mandated tests. We need quality headphones to help us learn in this modern, technology heavy world.
