Ms. Fanz from Saint Louis MO is requesting instructional technology through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Hooray (Again) for Headphones!

Help me give my students their own pair of child-sized headphones to allow them to hear and focus on online programs and apps that build early literacy and math skills.

Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Students

Many of my students face struggles and challenges in their daily lives, but I see their dedication, and the joy they find in learning is truly inspiring.

We work together to create a learning community where everyone is safe and feels valued.

During their time in my class, I work to show my students the rewards hard work brings, as well as to show them that our unique differences are to be celebrated and respected.

I teach in a Title I school with the majority of students receiving free or reduced price lunch. While our families want their children to be successful, and there is great community support for the schools, I know that many students will not come to school prepared with the necessary supplies. I do my best to ensure that all students have what they need academically, physically, and emotionally during the time they are in my care.

My Project

Technology has become an integral part of student learning. In order for my first graders to be able to access this technology they need to be to able hear! Learning can be noisy and adding in sounds from tablets and computers can cause too much distraction for other students.

Providing students with their own set of quality headphones will allow students to stay focused while learning with technology.

With these headphones, students will be able to hear directions in our online programs that tailor instruction to their just-right level in math and reading. Early readers will be able to strengthen emerging skills and develop a love of reading as they listen to stories being read aloud to them. And they will be able to hear the exciting sounds of online learning apps.
