I Can't Hear You... Let Me Help

My students need 20 Sony Headphones so that they are able to listen to my teaching videos and listen to digital books at their level. This will allow them to be more comfortable with their learning.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Howard's classroom raised $383

My Students

As educators, we know the importance of preparing our students for the real world. We want to provide them with everything they need and everything we can give. But, being a Title 1 school with 100% free lunch means that sometimes giving them what they deserve is out of our hands.

My classroom is diverse and full of eager children that crave learning.

They want to learn and they get excited about it, especially if it's about the world. These students are imaginative and inquisitive. This is just the beginning of their education and I want to develop into lifelong learners.

My Project

The 20 headphones would allow my students the opportunity to interact with anything they are doing on the computers. This will let them listen to a lesson and if need be listen to it repeatedly until they feel like they understand.

Differentiation in the classroom is very important.

Having a set of classroom headphone will allow students to repeat lesson on the computer if necessary. They can also listen to text at their level and be able to hear what fluent readers sound like or they could record and listen to themselves. I don't ever want my students to feel like they are being judged and keeping a little privacy with headphones would help with their confidence as well.
