My Project

There is nothing worse than having a great lesson planned and not being able to execute it because there aren't enough headphones around! These earbuds will be able to travel with each student each day, ensuring that they are ready for any video we throw at them!

We have a great program for filling gaps in their learning, but the lessons require headphones.

We are continually short on headphones, so relying on this program has become an issue. I would love to give my students headphones to keep with them throughout the day!
