Every child wants a voice in the classroom. Unfortunately, some are to shy to share because they can not speak loud enough to be heard. The Q-Ball is an innovative microphone in the shape of a ball. The children can hold the Q-Ball to their mouth to speak and be projected through the classroom speakers. When the child is done, they can toss the ball to the next person that is ready to share. Adding an element of fun to our learning environment sparks our children's desire to participate and retain the information being taught. The Q-Ball keeps the kids "on the ball" and engaged during classroom sharing sessions.
