Many of them use technology at home, but having their own set of headphones at school has helped them engage with our digital learning tools in a much more focused way. Whether they are listening to reading passages, following along with math tutorials, or completing interactive lessons, the headphones allow them to concentrate without distraction. This has helped them understand challenging content more deeply and given them the confidence to work independently.\r\n\r\nWhat my students love most is how the headphones make learning feel personal. They enjoy being able to control the volume, replay instructions, and fully immerse themselves in the activities we do each day. For my developing readers, especially, the headphones have been a game-changer—hearing fluent reading models clearly has helped them build accuracy and expression. One student who usually struggled to stay on task now slips on his headphones, settles into his assignments, and proudly completes activities that once felt overwhelming.\r\n\r\nYour support has created a calmer, more productive learning environment where every 4th grader can focus and thrive. Thank you for giving my students the tools they need to do their best work.","fullyFundedDate":1756433915665,"projectUrl":"project/can-you-hear-me-now/9479766/","projectTitle":"Can You Hear Me Now?","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Barlow","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8044755_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1729545112232","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8044755"},{"teacherId":7906549,"projectId":9197596,"letterContent":"I just wanted to start off by saying THANK YOU for your donations that helped my classroom become a place where students are able to truly grow and learn.

My students use the whiteboards during reading and math lessons to practice words and solve problems, and the headphones help them focus better during digital activities. One of the sweetest moments was when we opened the boxes: their faces lit up with joy as they saw all the new supplies, especially the Play-Doh, which we now use to form letters and words in a fun, hands-on way.\r\n\r\nThanks to your support, my students now have more tools to express themselves and learn with excitement. In the coming weeks, we'll be using the large chart paper and markers for collaborative writing projects, where students will create stories together and share their ideas with the class.
