My Students

Our classroom is a place full of opportunities. Our students come in each day not knowing where their learning will take them. They are eager to learn. With these books, not only can we continue exploring the world through technology, but we can explore through our library.

Our class loves to read all types of books!

They are often reading 2 books at a time, while listening to a book in read aloud! They love fiction and non-fiction, but something they really love... are graphic novels!

My Project

Right now most students are at school, but some students and some teachers are joining the school from home. When joining in on Zoom, it is nearly impossible to hear what the students say in the classroom. Teachers either have to restate what students say or students have to walk to the front of the classroom to speak into the computer microphone.

Additionally, kids are learning from such a distance in the classroom, that when masked, it's very difficult to hear each other.

This has made having classroom discussions nearly impossible!

The use of a wireless microphone will help students hear each other and collaborate better.
