When a classroom is full of students, it can be very hard to focus and concentrate on what students need to learn. With the number of students we have coming in and out of quarantine, our lesson plans are changing rapidly and students are doing different things each day.
Students need to be able to concentrate, and that comes in a variety of ways in the classroom.
Some students need a quiet place to work, others work better with a partner to discuss things, even others need white noise in their ears. Having a class set of headphones will allow students to meet their own needs and work independently in all situations.
These headphones will stay in my classroom and be a resource for students to use when they are needed. Sometimes that is for watching a video, listening to an audiobook, or masking the noise in the classroom. Either way, students will be able to use them as needed!
