My Project

My students are creative, eager learners who love expressing themselves through public speaking, music, and performance. It is my job to provide them with opportunities to build communication skills and self-esteem.

This throwable microphone ball will give all students—from the shyest to the most outgoing—a platform to share their thoughts, ideas, and talents.

I have never asked for anything like this through DonorsChoose before, and I am convinced that it will change our classroom environment. The Qball PRO Throwable Microphone is not something a teacher could ever afford on their own, but the concept is so revolutionary (a throwable ball microphone!) that I would love to have this in my classroom. This microphone will enhance classroom discussions by allowing students to speak comfortably from anywhere in the room. It will also encourage reluctant speakers and readers to participate, knowing their voices will be heard.

This microphone will directly impact my students, providing them with a tool that fosters creativity, collaboration, and confidence. Thank you for considering this project and thank you for believing in my students!
