My Project

Our students love to listen to books on CD as well as dance to music during music and movement. With the volume at max, we are still struggling to hear the songs sometimes and would love a Bluetooth speaker to hear more! We currently do not have a CD player for students to listen to music on CD and would love to introduce them to having that opportunity!

Students that are read to daily have a stronger vocabulary than students that are not read to on a daily basis.

Having a device that is easily accessible to the students will allow the students to be read to on a daily basis and at their leisure. They will be able to select the book/character at their own desire. With the headphones they are able to listen without interruption and can enjoy the book at their own time!
