Lessons

Cell phone ringtones, city traffic, loud chatter…everyday noises influence your students' hearing in ways that you may not have considered. Scholastic and the Starkey Hearing Foundation have partnered to create the Listen Carefully teaching materials. Begin teaching your students about the science of hearing today, and encourage them to perform experiments to put these lessons into practice.
