By reducing background noise, headphones allow students to concentrate on their own work without being distracted by conversations, movement, or other classroom sounds. This is especially helpful in busy learning environments where multiple activities may be happening at the same time. When children can clearly hear instructions, videos, or learning programs, they are better able to stay engaged and understand the content.\r\n\r\nHeadphones are also a powerful support for students with diverse learning needs. For children with ADHD, sensory sensitivities, or English language development needs, headphones can help regulate sensory input and create a calmer learning experience. They allow students to work at their own pace, listen to directions more than once, and build independence during small-group or independent work time.\r\n\r\nAdditionally, headphones support equitable access to learning by making technology-based instruction more effective. Students can listen to read-alouds, phonics programs, or educational videos without disrupting others, which helps maintain a respectful and productive classroom environment. Overall, headphones are a simple but valuable tool that promotes focus, inclusion, and meaningful learning for all students.","fullyFundedDate":1762265991493,"projectUrl":"project/tune-in-to-learning/9653813/","projectTitle":"Tune in to Learning","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Gilbert","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-7_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8556572"},{"teacherId":2462439,"projectId":9435740,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for the school supplies.
