My Project

My Kindergarten students are very tech-savvy and enjoy using Chromebooks to work on their i-Ready lessons. Unfortunately, we have an old set of school-issued headphones that are too big and bulky for my students' heads. Half the time, the headphones either squeeze their ears or fall off their heads.

These headphones will be more comfortable for my students and better suited for their head size.

As a result, my students can focus more on what they are learning than trying to adjust their headphones the entire time. The headphones are also more compact and will be stored more efficiently, taking up less space in the classroom.

Please partner with me in helping this project come to life.
