These headphones mean that any student has access to the tools they needs to succeed.\r\n\r\nHaving quality headphones means they don't have to move to a different area of the classroom so they don't disturb others when they have no headphones. It means they can just focus on their learning without distractions.\r\n\r\nWe love having headphones with Hearing Protection as a safety feature that make sense in a First Grade classroom. These also help focus ELL students with listening centers and provides focus for students with ADHD and sensory issues as well.","fullyFundedDate":1754338441509,"projectUrl":"project/hear-this-hear-this/9427922/","projectTitle":"Hear This!
