My Students

My students are inner city, low socioeconomic students in South Central Los Angeles. I teach second grade, and 100% of my students qualify for free lunch. Some of my students are English language learners. They have many difficult challenges in and out of the school. Resources are scarce, and my students do not always have the supplies they need to succeed. My students' families are very hardworking, but often have difficulties making ends meet; many of them work multiple jobs and do not always have the time or resources to volunteer at school.

My Project

At the beginning of this school year, our grade level received a computer cart containing 24 Chromebooks to use with our students. This has given us the opportunity to challenge our students to use technology every day in their learning.

Unfortunately, headphones were not provided with these computers.

We have access to many online resources such as Amplify Reading, Go Noodle, Mystery Science, and Prodigy Math among others. While the students are excited and engaged with using these resources, it makes for a very noisy classroom. Many of my students are easily distracted and have trouble focusing with so much sound around them. A set of headphones for each student would help them stay focused and on task.

I really need your support. Thank you.
