We Need Headphones- Please

My students need 5 headphones that work with microphones so they can work on their language skills. Thank you!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Richberger's classroom raised $355

This project is fully funded

My Students

My classroom is filled with amazing young men from 4th grade to 6th grade. They are fun, silly, and have a willingness to learn. Many of them have been told that they can't do things, but I know that is not true- they can do anything they put their minds to!!

I have students in grades 4-6th in a special needs alternative school.

The students are capable of doing anything they put their more than capable minds to. They are so smart and funny and love learning. I hope to keep their spirits up and let then know they are more than capable of following their dreams.

My Project

These fabulous headphones will assist the students in working on a program called Read180 for students trying to improve their reading, language, and comprehension skills. They will be used every day in the morning as part of the program and then again when they do RTI in the afternoons. The school district was nice enough to get us the program but they didn't come with headphones that had microphones - which are required to do the program. Getting these will sincerely help the students to progress in the necessary skills that they need.

It will change my students lives because not only will they look fashionable in the new red-hot headphones, they will be able to read at a higher grade level and their comprehension should improve as well.
