My Project

Computer time is a favorite activity in our classroom! It is a time when students are focused are their individual learning paths in both Reading and Math. However, it can also be very distracting because they can hear the sounds of their fellow classmates lessons.

This project is the solution!

Each scholar will have his/her own pair of headphones. They will be able to focus on their own assignments and stay actively engaged! The durable clear storage bags will help keep each students pair of headphones organized, safe and clean.
