Cheri Hargrave left a comment for Ms. K"Do you have a picture of your window with the sub on it? I have a large window as well and that sounds so clever."
Julie replied to Cheri Hargrave's discussion Wireless Headphones"I had the problem with kids chewing and twirling the wires as well. So, what our school decided to do was add it to each student's school supply list. If the kids didn't bring headphones, then their computer was on mute. …"
Carleen Short replied to Cheri Hargrave's discussion Wireless Headphones"RE: How you manage personal sets for each child... Badly!
I tried to phase out buying new headphones without being accused of stealing headphone money. Nobody had sent money in for the first two years I was there, so I was hoping to have…"
Jacqui Murray replied to Cheri Hargrave's discussion Wireless Headphones"Ha! Parents would probably go ballistic over that one. What's OK at home isn't always OK at school.
I limit headphone use at my school. Even with KidPix with all those fun sounds, I don't let them use headphones because…"
Aleesha B replied to Cheri Hargrave's discussion Wireless Headphones"I just feel sick reading this. Chewing cords, totally gross!!!!"
Carleen Short replied to Cheri Hargrave's discussion Wireless Headphones"Yep, I've had them chewed right through to the copper wiring. I'm now in a lab where every one of 300 kids has his/her own set of headphones - storage and logistical nightmare. The odd thing is, there isn't as much chewing. Makes me…"
Cheri Hargrave replied to Cheri Hargrave's discussion Wireless Headphones"I love the idea of the headphones on backwards. Thank you!"
Lenette replied to Cheri Hargrave's discussion Wireless Headphones"Lol. I know exactly what you mean. My students do the same thing. It would be nice not to have to deal with wires, but Jacqui is correct, the batteries would be a headache and expensive.
I have a computer lab with 30 students stations, so every…"
Cheri Hargrave replied to Cheri Hargrave's discussion Wireless Headphones"Thank you so much for the input :-). You probably saved me a few hundred dollars."
Jacqui Murray replied to Cheri Hargrave's discussion Wireless Headphones"Haha. How funny. I went through wanting wireless headphones a few years ago. It was explained to me that I'd be exchanging batteries constantly and it would drive me nuts. I have a wireless for my desktop at school and decided they were right.…"

Does anyone use wireless headphones in their labs? I have a problem with the students chewing on the cords. Does anyone else experience this? I teach 1st and 2nd graders.See More
Cheri Hargrave replied to Liz Gatewood's discussion Thanksgiving Projects"I did the exact thing and had the same problem. So on the beak and the feet, I had them use the pencil to color in. They turned out great."
Cheri Hargrave replied to Liz Gatewood's discussion Thanksgiving Projects"Do you have the template? This sounds like a great idea."

Amber Coggin said… - Hi Cheri! Thanks so much for your sweet comments. I'm so glad you have found my sites useful! I actually feel like I haven't been able to spend much time finding new resources this summer because this summer has been all about the SMART Board! I hope to share more things once school starts back. Again, thanks for writing and I look forward to networking with you in the future.
