It helps students practice foundational skills, build confidence, and grow at their own pace. Before this project, our old headphones were too big and constantly slipped off, making it hard for my young learners to stay focused. Now, with the new, perfectly fitting headphones, my students can fully engage with their lessons without worrying about holding their headphones in place.\r\n\r\nThese new headphones have transformed the learning experience in our classroom. The comfortable fit and slight noise-canceling effect allow students to concentrate better, even in a busy kindergarten environment. They can listen carefully to directions, practice phonics sounds, and complete math challenges with greater independence. Most of my students prefer these new headphones to any other option in the classroom, often asking for \"the comfy ones\" before starting i-Ready time.\r\n\r\nIt's been especially heartwarming to see how some of my more easily distracted students have flourished with this change. Students who once struggled to stay on task are now completing lessons with enthusiasm and pride. The new headphones have helped create a calm, focused atmosphere that lets every child do their best work. Your contribution has truly made learning more accessible and enjoyable for my young students—thank you for giving them the tools they need to succeed!","fullyFundedDate":1756506166803,"projectUrl":"project/student-headphones/9651546/","projectTitle":"Student Headphones","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Hardie","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-10_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10224679"},{"teacherId":7887590,"projectId":6547940,"letterContent":"Thank you for supporting my classroom with your generous donation.

Being able to replenish our close to drying out expo markers and Crayola makers was a huge help. The students were excited to get the new supplies, but REALLY excited about the prizes in the prize box, especially the bouncy balls! Having new desk dividers, which we call \"offices\" in our classroom, was also very exciting. The students love having colorful ones that could easily fit in their desk so they can use them whenever they want privacy doing their work. The 3 pronged folders are being used to hold students' reading fluency pages. They enjoy adding a new page to their folder each week. The labels have been especially helpful to me. I've used them for a variety of things including labeling student supplies and printing out sight words to use for center materials.
