My Students

I am a teacher of 16 years at an elementary school in Milwaukee at a high poverty school. My classroom is made up of 30 first and second grade students. I service students whose educational needs greatly vary. A classroom set of headphones will allow my students to have access to listen and learn using their Chromebooks.

My Project

A classroom set of headphones will allow my students to have access to listening and learning using their Chromebooks. Each student will succeed with their daily independent practice with both reading and math online programs. Right now only a few of them have headphones and it is a struggle. Some of the headphones purchased are not good quality so they don't last.

The use of headphones will improve the way they listen and learn in reading and math independently on their Chromebooks.

With headphones, students will be able to focus with fewer distractions coming from other students sitting next to them. Students benefit greatly from these online programs.
