I am a first-year teacher and I have some amazing kiddos. We are working together to grow and learn every day. The look on their faces when they've gotten an answer correct or finally figured out what sound 'short o' makes is indescribable. We use our iPads daily for math and reading station time. Without the headphones, the students struggle to hear the question completely and lose focus way too often. With headphones, students could pay better attention to their devices and the applications they are using. I know with headphones, a lot of the students would enjoy iPad time more and they would be able to grow their monthly scores. Overall, headphones would be a complete game-changer for some of my kiddos. This project would help me enrich their learning experiences in my classroom.
