My Project

The weather is getting nice in New York City! We want to get outdoors for movement.

We need a portable speaker to play music and breathe fresh air.

My students like to stretch, exercise, and dance. When the weather is nice, we move our bodies outdoors. We move into the schoolyard where there is much more space to move around safely. This project includes a portable speaker to play our workout playlists and a case to protect and store the speaker.

I will connect the speaker to my cellphone so the children can hear their exercise prompts and favorite songs while exercising.
