My Project

I absolutely love how eager and engaged my third-grade students are. They are curious, hardworking, and always excited to explore new ideas. Unfortunately, many of them struggle to concentrate during lessons when using digital resources because the classroom lacks enough headphones for everyone.

The headphones I’m requesting will allow each student to focus on their work without distractions, whether they are listening to an educational video on science, completing interactive math lessons, or participating in reading comprehension exercises through digital platforms.

Students will also use them during online tests, where clear audio instructions are crucial. With headphones, they will be able to hear instructions clearly and participate in the learning process more effectively, especially when working in small groups or independently.

My goal for this project is to provide each student with their own set of headphones, empowering them to take full advantage of technology in the classroom and build confidence in their learning.

What makes my students special is their diverse backgrounds and unique learning styles. They bring different perspectives to the classroom and approach challenges with resilience and creativity. Some students need visual and auditory input to truly absorb new concepts, while others benefit from interactive content. With the right resources, they are capable of achieving amazing things. This project will help ensure they have the tools they need to succeed.
