Student Headphones for Differentiated Instruction and Independent Learning

Help me give my students headphones to better differentiate their instruction for independent learning.

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Haring's classroom raised $469

This project is fully funded

My Project

My students come to me from a wide array of different backgrounds and prior knowledge. The one thing that they all have in common is that they have a sincere desire to learn more about the scientific world around them. Differentiating classroom instruction allows me to be able to meet them where they currently are academically.

A classroom set of headphones will help me to differentiate instruction to allow students to learn from their baseline skillset.

With whole class instruction, it is very difficult to meet the current academic needs of all students. With a set of headphones, I will be able to assign work that meets the needs of each individual learner allowing them to work independently.
