Description:

The materials desired will help students be engaged and prepared for learning while helping them work at their highest potential. Students often time do not have headphones that work, or they forget their headphones for class. Rather, it's for state testing, interim testing, classroom testing, or interactive class work, students need a good, reliable pair of headphones. Having a classroom set of headphones will allow me to have students on task or prepared for testing without students asking to borrow some from a friend. 

Additionally, having classroom cushions for students to work around the room and engage in lessons with their partner allows them to work in a comfortable environment. Furthermore, cushions allow them the opportunity to get comfortable and lost in their reading.
