Needing To Hear

Help me give my students headphones so that they can do their on line assignments with no issues.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Washington's classroom raised $277

This project is fully funded

My Project

My students already have one-to one Chromebooks, but they do not have one to one headphone access.

I would like for my students to be able to use their Chromebooks without having to say "I can't hear", especially since we do not have enough headphones for them.

The ear buds I was given, tear up quickly. When my students are on the computer, I would like for them to be able to do their assignments being able to hear and not having to wait until someone finishes using a headset then waiting for it to be cleaned.

I would also like for my students to be able to keep up with their headphones. I would place them in a bag with their name and It and I would make it easier for me to see who is being responsible and not breaking them. I know this seems like a lot, but if I begin to teach them how to be responsible for items now maybe they will take better care of them.
