Pump Up the Jam!

Help me give my students a classroom set of headphones to help differentiate instruction for diverse learners.

My Project

These headphones will allow me to utilize technology in small group and individual instruction. Not only will students be able to watch videos that accompany lessons, but we can also use the headphones for simulations and applications such as Garage Band and other music creation applications.

A classroom set of headphones will also ensure that I always have the necessary equipment for testing accommodations for students with 504s and IEPs.

By having my own set, I would no longer rely on students bringing their own to class.

Additionally, I like getting students up and out of their seats by rotating with groups to different stations. If I have enough headphones, I can place some at one station, so that students can watch a video, for example, and not be interrupted or distracted by another group at a noisier station.
