Listen Up! My First Graders Need Headphones!

My students need Kidz Gear Wired Headphones For Kids to be fully engaged while working on educational activities on their classroom iPads.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Fay's classroom raised $560

This project is fully funded

My Students

In my classroom there are 18 eager first graders.

My students are curious, active, and always keep me on my toes!

Our school qualifies as Title I school with an astounding poverty rate. Many students come to school carrying more baggage than just their backpacks. Despite their hurdles, these first graders are committed and excited every single day. They love learning and always give me their all. Most importantly we are a family and we always take care of each other.

My Project

Our school has the amazing opportunity to have iPads for every student but my students can't concentrate while working because not everyone has headphones!

Your donation will provide a better, more enhanced and focused learning environment for my students.

While working on their iPads my students could be reading books, spelling words, solving math problems, or creating a response to a classroom activity but with 18 students there is always a ton of activity in the classroom. This makes it very difficult to stay focused. I want my students to get the most out of their digital learning experience and with your help they can have a chance!
