When you stop to think about it, headphones are perhaps some of the most important equipment in your entire classroom! After all, students use classroom headphones each day for a variety of listening and learning activities, including computer research, listening to stories, watching videos, and even taking tests. If it weren’t for headphones, your classroom might be a much noisier, more distraction-filled place.
If you are concerned about the amount of germs, viruses, and bacteria that build up on your classroom headphones, you’re not alone! As we head into cold and flu season, it’s more important than ever to stay vigilant about cleaning and sanitizing all common-use equipment, including headphones. Here are some tips for keeping headphones clean all year long.
