Help me give my students headphones for their Chromebooks, so their work does not interrupt other classmates.

My Students

I love my students and want what is best for them! Our classroom is a family. We all have different needs and learning styles to accommodate. We are growing and learning together every day. We are a family eager to learn! This year we are together in the classroom and virtually.

In our classroom family, we are an energetic, friendly, and loving group of diverse fourth graders.

In our classroom, we all have different family backgrounds and lean on support from our classroom materials and peers. Everyone shows up ready to learn and excited! As my students come from different backgrounds, they do not all have the same background knowledge to bring to the table.

My Project

These headphones will help my students in the classroom and at home. The headphones will be used for educational purposes. We do a lot of computer work and unfortunately, a lot of my students do not have headphones.

The headphones will also allow students to speak clearly into the microphones for recording their reading on Raz-Kids.

Raz-Kids allows students to record their reading and also allows the teacher to go back and listen to each student's reading ability. The microphones will allow the teacher to hear and understand her students better. These headphones will help with distractions in the classroom. Students can listen to their own sounds and not bother other students that are working on their work.

My students need these headphones to have a better work environment at home and in the classroom. The microphone is also a huge bonus for quiet students. The headphones can also help block out unnecessary noise at home that may distract students.
