My Project

As a special education teacher for grades 1-4, I strive to create an engaging and accessible learning environment for all learners. One critical need in our classroom is a set of durable, high-quality headphones for our students to use with educational programs like Seesaw, IXL, Zearn, and Unique Learning System.

Many of our students rely on these programs for personalized learning, speech and language support, and differentiated instruction.

However, our current headphones are either broken, shared among multiple students, or completely unavailable, making it difficult for students to focus and fully engage with their lessons. Having reliable headphones will not only reduce distractions but also support students who benefit from auditory learning and text-to-speech features.
