The Sound of Silence

Help me give my students the gift of silence. Kids these days are inundated with noise. Sometimes they just crave silence. Help me give them the focus they need to do their best in school.

My Project

My students are eager to learn. Sometimes, they just need help getting their little brains to tune out distractions so they can focus. I have requested a classroom set of noise-canceling ear muffs. These muffs will help the students focus on their work.

In today's fast-paced world, children need to learn to slow down, calm down, and focus.

These ear muffs will help them do that. I have also requested pencil pouches to keep the children organized. These pouches will help keep classroom clutter down to a minimum. I have also requested two pencil sharpeners. One for colored pencils and one for regular pencils. I hope this is the year that my pencil sharpeners do not break.
