My Project

I teach students with autism in alternate curriculum who have extensive needs in Los Angeles Unified School District. Most of the students in my classroom come from low income family. Majority of the students are not able to read loudly. The machine will help the students read loudly in the classroom.

The Karaoke machine with microphone will give a voice to them and gain confidence and get better at reading.

This machine will also help my students participate during dance break and while participating in the emergency drill at school.
