My Project

Headphones are essential everyday in my classroom. Without working headphones, it is extremely difficult for students to concentrate and complete their assignments online. Headphones do not last forever from daily use, so there is a constant need for new headphones. While it would be ideal for each student to bring their headphones and for headphones to last all school year, neither of those usually happens. My students need these headphones to be successful. In our classroom, we use headphones daily. The use of headphones engages and empowers learners. Please help purchase new headphones that fit students comfortably.
