We have many students who are just beginning to communicate verbally and they are motivated to speak when they see photos of themselves, their friends, work they've done and places we've visited. We are constantly taking pictures with our phones to document their learning and experiences. This projector will allow us to instantly share photos in on a large scale so that the whole group of children can participate in the viewing together. I know our children will be so inspired and excited to see themselves larger than life! This mini projector is practical because it is bluetooth enabled and wireless so we can easily transport it to a variety of areas within the school building as well as outside on our patio or in the park. We can even project images on the ceiling while children are laying down--imagine the fun!!
