Students were able to work on this multimedia project and gain practice on their fine motor skills. They were able to cut and paste to create this interactive art project and were so excited to bring it home and share it with their families. With the growing emphasis on technology, it is essential that we still give students space to use their creativity and practice those crucial functions. In addition to strengthening students' abilities, this project was also used as a \"fun Friday\" reward to reinforce the positive classroom behavior they have been displaying all week.

While many donors are familiar with using headphones at home, their role in the classroom is even more essential. With so many digital learning platforms—such as reading programs, phonics lessons, math practice, and small-group skill work—students need to clearly hear instructions, stories, and feedback without classroom noise interfering. These headphones allow every student to fully focus on their task, making their learning more personalized, calm, and effective.\r\n\r\nWhat excites my students most is the ability to truly \"tune in\" to their own learning. They love having their own pair, knowing it's comfortable, clean, and works well. It gives them a sense of responsibility and independence, which is especially motivating at this age. Many students tell me that the lessons feel more fun and easier to follow now that they can hear every sound and direction clearly.\r\n\r\nSeveral students in particular have really thrived because of these headphones. Some of my more easily distracted learners are now able to stay focused for longer stretches of time because background noise no longer pulls them away from the activity. I also have a few students who struggle with auditory processing, and the clarity these headphones provide has helped them better understand phonics sounds, reading passages, and digital instructions. One student who often felt frustrated during online reading practice now smiles when logging in because he can finally hear every sound without strain.\r\n\r\nThese headphones have truly elevated the learning environment in our classroom. They've made lessons more accessible, more engaging, and more enjoyable for every student. We are so thankful for your support—you've helped create a calmer, more focused, and more successful learning experience for all of us.","fullyFundedDate":1758292716771,"projectUrl":"project/headphones-headway-in-learning/9484865/","projectTitle":"Headphones = Headway in Learning","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Heeney","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp6321936_orig.jpg?crop=480,480,x0,y70&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1758294858372","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/6321936"},{"teacherId":10071496,"projectId":9451698,"letterContent":"Thank you for providing my room with a large rug for students to spend their day learning.
