My Project

I teach 85 wonderful 8th grade students in North Philly. During our 90 minute math block, we are utilizing computers for the last 30 minutes. On the computers, students are engaging with edtech to enhance their learning experience.

We are in desperate need of headphones so students can utilize their computers to listen to learning videos and practice on Zearn.

This will enhance their learning time and provide them with an opportunity to engage with the videos simultaneously in the classroom. Your donation will be a catalyst in bridging the gap for educational equity.
