My Project

I have several centers around my classroom where my students can listen to or create their own music. Between the keyboard lab, electric drum pads, computers and listening stations, headphones are a must in my classroom. Hurricane Ian meant a lot of my students lost personal possessions including things like headphones.

After the effects from Hurricane Ian, I want to invest in high quality headphones that will last and continue to give my students a way to express music at all the different centers in my classroom.

Teaching over 750 students, headphones get a lot of wear and tear. My hope is by investing in high quality headphones, they will survive the wear and tear much better and last for years instead of months. In addition to the wear and tear, with high quality headphones, the sound will be much better.
