My Project

The reason for this project is to enhance the classroom environment that supports myself and my students. My classroom is larger than the normal classroom. Receiving a speaker system will ensure that all students, regardless of their seating position can clearly hear me. This will allow me to speak at a natural volume without straining my voice. I will be able to use the speaker system in and outside of the classroom. This will allow me to take the classroom outside fo the classroom.

This speaker system will allow my classroom to become more adaptable due to its large size.

A portable system will ensure that I can maintain clear communication regardless of my location in the classroom. This will allow me as a teacher to be more flexible in my classroom instruction.
