My Project

These materials will make the school year successful and meaningful for all my students. They are needed and will be used for educational purposes. As I loop up with my students, I am able to identify what is needed in the classroom. The headphones are needed to keep up with the expected usage of technology. A carpet is needed to bring students together to complete whole class tasks. Whisperphones are used to strengthen the students' fluency.

Headphones give students the ability to complete tasks with no interruptions and a focus to comprehend directions used online.

It will also give the students a responsibility to properly take care of their headphones when not in use.

Our classroom carpet is worn down, so the use of carpet time is limited due to wear and tear. The carpet was fully used daily for multiple reasons, both direct instruction and independent activities.

Whisper phones have been a great addition to our phonics instruction and invention activities.

When given this opportunity to utilize essential materials, my students are able to flourish and be engage. They become more confident with engaging in lessons. My goal for this project is to overcome barriers that may prevent my students to fully engage in their learning. With the help of our generous donors this goal would be possible. Thank you.
