Third grade is an important year. My students will spend a lot more time writing and working independently. They will also spend time on the computer during both reading and math. The two most frustrating things for both myself and students are having pencils that constantly need to be sharpened or replaced, and being unable to hear what is being said on the computer. The earbuds students are currently given often become tangled or stop working after only a week or two and students constantly need to have their pencils replaced. This leads to many disruptions in the rest of the learning that is happening in the classroom. Having mechanical pencils and quality headphones will ensure that learning is maximized each and every moment of every day. Students will receive mechanical pencils to use during independent work time so they will no longer have to worry about being interrupted by the need to replace a pencil or being disrupted by someone else who is replacing a pencil. In addition, each student will receive his or her own a pair of quality headphones that will stay on their ears and help to cancel the outside noise to use during the time on the computer.
