Headphones On? Microphones Ready? Let's Go Explore Today!

Funded Dec 24, 2014

We sincerely thank you for taking the time and using the resources to help us. My students and I are super excited and unbelievably grateful. They kept asking if we had to return the headphones after class. I had to explain to them that the headphones were now the property of our class and that we can use them daily at will. This was a great opportunity to teach a mini lesson on grants, generosity and kindness.

We use our headphones daily for our Listening Station. Students rotate to the station, listen to a recording (various kinds from YouTube to teacher-made recordings) and answer questions or complete a task based on the recording.

The listening allows us to differentiate instructions and tailor instructions to the students specific needs. I suddenly find myself rediscovering ways to enjoy teaching. The spectrum of what was doable became wider. My students and I are benefiting from our resources daily.

Thank you for taking the time and the money and to allows us to dare dream. We hope to be able to help someone in the future.”

With gratitude,

Ms. Nakou
