My Project

Headphones and a beanbag seat will help my first grade students focus and enjoy learning. The headphones will reduce distractions during Math and Reading, helping them concentrate on stories and exercises. The beanbag seat will create a cozy space where they can relax, read, and work on tasks comfortably. Together, these resources will make the classroom more engaging and supportive.

My goal is to provide 20 pairs of headphones and a beanbag seat to create a better learning environment.

These resources will help my students stay focused, improve their concentration, and make learning more enjoyable.

My students are special because they are curious, full of energy, and always eager to learn. They ask great questions, enjoy working together, and bring excitement to the classroom every day. Their enthusiasm and kindness make teaching them a joy.
