3rd Grade Inclusion Wishlist

Makayla Cadajas / Barnett Elementary 2024-25

Our mission is to create an inclusive and supportive learning environment for all students by providing the tools and resources they need to succeed. By acquiring headphones with microphones for third-grade classrooms, we aim to enhance students' ability to communicate effectively, particularly those who benefit from speech-to-text technology. This initiative will not only support students with diverse learning needs but also ensure that every student, regardless of background, has the opportunity to participate fully and equitably in their education.

About 3rd Grade Inclusion Wishlist

Many of our students face challenges in reading and writing, which can make it difficult for them to express their thoughts and ideas clearly. For these students, speech-to-text software is a valuable tool that allows them to verbally communicate their responses, which are then transcribed into text. This accommodation is particularly helpful for students with learning disabilities, language barriers, or other challenges that hinder their ability to write effectively. The use of speech-to-text enables these students to focus on their ideas and creativity without being bogged down by the difficulty of decoding and spelling words. It also reduces frustration and promotes a positive, confidence-building experience in the classroom. Another critical need is ensuring that every student has access to the tools necessary for success. Every year, we have students who come from low-income families and do not have personal headphones to use during class activities that require listening, speaking, or working with technology. For students without headphones, these gaps can create barriers to learning and leave them feeling disconnected from the classroom experience. By providing a set of headphones with microphones for classroom use, we can ensure that every student has the resources they need to participate in activities and make the most of their learning opportunities. Funds raised will be used to purchase a sufficient number of headphones with built-in microphones that will be available for all third-grade students to use. These high-quality headphones will not only support students using speech-to-text accommodations but also assist in listening and speaking activities, providing a more inclusive learning experience for all students. The headphones will be made available for students to borrow as needed, especially those who do not have personal headphones of their own. By investing in these tools, we can ensure that all students—regardless of their learning challenges or socioeconomic background—have the support they need to thrive in the classroom. This initiative will enhance students' writing abilities, foster a more inclusive environment, and promote equity by ensuring that every student has access to the same opportunities for success. Thank you SO very much for investing in our students and future leaders of the world!
