My 5th and 6th grade students are in dire need of a classroom set of headphones. This year is the first year that we did not receive headphones for each child at our school because of budget cuts.
My students use iReady on a daily basis to strengthen reading comprehension, vocabulary, and writing skills, most of the time with the volume on the lowest setting to keep from disturbing classmates.’ We also need headphones during testing for instructions and directions.
These headphones would be a great addition to my classroom and helpful to one 5th grade class and two 6th grade classes. Please help us to have the ability to listen on a path to progress!
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
