FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Charleston's classroom raised $513

My Project

Headphones are essential devices that are used daily in my classroom. More now than ever students are using more technology. They use computers to complete daily assignments in reading, math, and science.

When students use headphones, it helps them focus on their own screen and assignments.

They are also needed for remote learning. The use headphones, encourages students to pay attention and interact with me the teacher because they can hear every word that I am saying.

Finally, my students take several online assessments throughout the school year. During testing, headphones help students to concentrate and focus more on their screen than nearby noisy distractions.
