Help me give my students some Hi-fi headsets so they can focus better from home while they learn virtually. Also, please provide me with an extra monitor so that I may be able to monitor them more closely.

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
This my 15th year teaching 4th grade and I love, love, love that my kids are old enough to be a little more independent, but also still kids who want to do and play and have fun. I work at a Title I school, and most of our kids are economically disadvantaged. Most of my students also come from mostly Spanish speaking homes which gives us a bigger advantage and sometimes even a disadvantage, because we are bilingual! This year has been hard. Our area is a hot spot for COVID-19 and unfortunately we have not been able to go back for in-school instruction, but we still like to have fun while learning.
My Project
Working in a COVID-19 hot spot area has hindered the learning of many of our already struggling students. The lack of focus and concentration on my students has negatively affected them in their online learning. Coming from economically disadvantaged homes, many do not have the means to provide a safe, quiet, learning environment. Multiple siblings in their household, prevents them from the proper concentration at home. These headsets will allow my student to focus better. The extra monitor will allow me to monitor my students more closely as they work on assignments/projects from home. I will be able to do more breakout rooms using Google Meet and work on Nearpod lessons where I will be able to focus more on their work. This monitor will not only be used with my regular education classes which include our Special Education students and Dyslexia/504 students, but also with my UIL class and my Gifted and Talented Students. The dry erase boards will provide them with a fun way to work out their math problems or help out with spelling quiz games, Thank you so much for considering funding my project!
