My Project

I teach an amazing group of first graders who are eager to learn and grow every day. My students are bright, hardworking, and full of potential. They love using technology to enhance their learning, but background noise can be distracting, especially during assessments and independent work. Having access to headphones with built-in microphones will allow them to focus better and clearly communicate during online activities.

To help my students do their best, I am requesting a set of high-quality headphones with microphones to support them during testing and daily learning activities.

With your generous support, I hope to provide a classroom set of durable headphones with microphones. These will be used during important assessments, literacy programs, and interactive learning activities. The built-in microphones will also help students engage in reading fluency exercises and language development programs.

Testing and digital learning have become an essential part of education. Many of our programs require students to listen carefully and respond verbally. Without proper headphones, students struggle to hear instructions clearly, and background noise makes it difficult for them to concentrate. These headphones will provide a quiet, focused learning environment, allowing all students to do their best.

Your donation will directly impact my students by giving them the tools they need to succeed. Every contribution, no matter the size, brings us one step closer to creating a distraction-free learning space. Thank you for supporting my classroom and helping my students reach their full potential!
