Help My Students Focus with Noise-Canceling Headphones!

Help me give my students get noise cancelling headphones. My first-grade students struggle with classroom noise, making it hard to focus on learning. I’m requesting six noise-canceling headphones to create a quieter, more focused space.

My Project

In my first-grade classroom, students are constantly working on developing essential skills like reading, writing, and problem-solving. However, for many of them—especially those with unique learning needs—background noise and classroom distractions make it difficult to focus and do their best work.

I am requesting six noise-canceling headphones to create a quieter learning environment where students can concentrate without being overwhelmed by surrounding noise.

These headphones will be especially helpful for students who struggle with attention and sensory processing, allowing them to engage more comfortably and confidently in their learning.

With these headphones, my students will be able to block out distractions, stay on task, and build independence in their work. This simple tool can make a big difference in their daily success and overall learning experience.

Your support in providing these headphones will have a lasting impact on my students’ ability to focus, learn, and grow. Thank you for helping to create a classroom where every child can thrive!
