Help Us Focus

Help me give my students noise cancelling headphone to improve concentration and focus.

My Project

My elementary classroom is fun, inviting, and full of activity. It can also be loud with all of our learners in a small portable classroom. For students with sensory issues or students who are easily distracted, the volume in our classroom at times can sometimes create discomfort. I am hoping to be able to provide noise-cancelling headphones to my students in order to help them succeed in their learning.

Please help to provide my class with noise cancelling headphones that I may use when assessing students or for students who are feeling overwhelmed by the sensory stimulation in our sometimes noisy room.

The headphones will provide my students with the ability to retain the information they are learning in order to build a stronger educational foundation. By focusing and blocking out distractions, they will be able to meet their learning goals this year and beyond.

Thank you for your consideration.
