Because of you, our learners have resources that truly support their success and confidence.\r\n\r\nWhen the headphones arrived, the excitement was immediate and contagious. The students were thrilled to see all the bright, colorful options and loved being able to choose their favorite colors. They use their headphones during computer time. This includes weekly digital math lessons as well as language arts time, where they practice foundational skills in the Spanish language they are learning and building their reading fluency.\r\n\r\nWhat has changed most is their level of focus and engagement. Students no longer have to struggle to tune out the surrounding noise from other computers, allowing them to fully concentrate on their learning.\r\n\r\nAs a teacher, I have seen a remarkable transformation. What use to be a noisy, distracting computer time has become a calmer, more relaxed, and productive part of our day. Your generosity has created a more peaceful learning environment where students can strive, and for that, I am deeply thankful. Your support truly makes a lasting impact.","fullyFundedDate":1762538030411,"projectUrl":"project/little-ears-big-learning-headphones-fo/9875294/","projectTitle":"Little Ears, Big Learning!
