What Did He Say? Speakers!

Help me give my students the gift of sound. These speakers will help me be heard during lecture as well as let me play background music while kids work in groups.

My Project

My students require a great deal of content and direct instruction, especially those depending on effective instruction to pass AP tests. When we returned to the classroom after COVID, our school installed very loud air filters that make hearing instruction and directions very difficult.

To fight the constant drowning out of the air filters, I need to rely on a microphone and small speaker that squeaks and squawks and still isn't effective, so I need help getting some speakers that will help us all hear what's going on in the classroom!
