Many people use technology at home, but in schools, these tools play a very specific role in supporting early literacy and foundational skills. With these headphones, my kindergarteners can clearly hear phonics sounds 🔤, listen to stories 📖, complete adaptive lessons 💻, and take online assessments without distractions. This has made a tremendous difference for students who need a quiet space to concentrate or who benefit from hearing instructions repeated at their own pace.\r\n\r\nWhat excites my students most is the independence these headphones give them 🌟. They love logging into their programs, pressing play ▶️, and diving into learning without background noise. I've seen students who once struggled to stay engaged suddenly become fully immersed in their lessons. One of my quieter students, who often hesitated during whole‑group activities, now participates confidently during speaking and listening tasks because she can hear herself clearly through the microphone 🎤. Another student who is learning English has especially warmed to this technology — he replays vocabulary and phonics sounds as many times as he needs, and his progress has been remarkable 🌱.\r\n\r\nYour support has created a calmer, more productive classroom where every child feels capable and successful 💛. These headphones are used every single day, and the impact is already visible in their focus, their excitement, and their growth as learners. Thank you for believing in my students and giving them the tools they need to shine ✨.","fullyFundedDate":1769192002569,"projectUrl":"project/focused-minds-stronger-learning/9985544/","projectTitle":"Focused Minds, Stronger Learning","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Gore","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10397664_orig.png?crop=710,710,x0,y80&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1767795977214","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10397664"},{"teacherId":8346171,"projectId":9667870,"letterContent":"I really appreciate you taking the time and finding it in your hearts to donate to my classroom.
