Can You Hear Me Now?

My students need this microphone so they can hear me well throughout the day as I am moving around the room. The floor pads will allow students to have a seating choice for reading.

My Students

My students are third graders in Colorado. They are diverse students from many different cultures and family values. They are special in their own way and they all have different skills that they showcase every day.

I hope to help my students feel confident in their work and excel academically.

My goal is also to teach them how to be good citizens and have a positive outlook towards their learning. They deserve to have the best learning environment possible!

My Project

The seating pads will allow my students to sit on the floor for reading and circle time comfortably. They also serve as a cushion for them in their chairs that they sit in during instruction time. For students who need to move a little more, they are fantastic!

The microphone will help my students to be able to hear my voice at an even volume.

I feel like the students in the front of my classroom are hearing my voice to loudly and the students in the back can't hear me well enough. The microphone would even that out for the whole class so all of my students can hear me clearly.
