My Project

These headphones will be used to help students complete online learning activities in the classroom. We are back in the classroom and have been welcoming new ways of learning. Due to Covid, many changes have come along in the learning process. One of the changes is that more and more things are being done online. Due to this reason my class has an urgent need for individual headphones. In the past, I have had headphones for students to use at the technology center during our center times. Now students need their own headphones and I do not have enough. We were provided with earbuds but they have been breaking and getting tangled easily leading to many learning minutes lost dealing with these issues.

These headphones and dry erase markers will help to make our center time and whole group time go more smoothly which will increase the time I can spend on small group instruction.
