My Project

We are in need of a class set of headphones for all of our listening practices and exams as well as a place to store them. We currently only have enough headphones for 60% of the students in a given class. These headphones also do not block out sound very well which can be challenging in a classroom of 30+ seated 4 to a table. Additionally, my students struggle with keeping 4 on the floor with the table and chair configuration. The bands will help them

My junior high students will enjoy having better audio equipment to hear the authentic resources that help support their learning.

These headphones will also be stored nicely within the chair pockets, allowing us to quickly move between our whole class instruction and independent exploration through music, videos, and authentic conversations. Additionally, my students struggle with keeping 4 on the floor with the table and chair configuration. The bands will help them focus their energy and need for movement during independent seated work time saving our chairs and their backsides from tips and falls.

Mrs. Fain will only receive her materials if this project is fully funded by August 31.
