Learning Without Extra Noise

Help me give my students headphones to listen in small groups without all the noises around them.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Koy's classroom raised $493

My Project

My students are special needs students and sometimes loud noises will set them off. The headphones I'm requesting for my students would be to help them with limiting the noises around them. It would help them to focus on what they are learning instead of listening to all the noises that other students are making.

My goal is to have my students focusing on the lesson of the day, completing their classroom work, and help them understand that sometimes we need to cover our ears because our environment is too loud.
