My Project

In the time of COVID-19, music teachers have the challenge of making our classes safe and secure, while also continuing to make the experience fun and engaging. Additionally, technology has become an ever-increasing resource in the classroom. This project will help provide a booming musical experience for all the children who enter my music room.

This provides a musical experience that is fun, all-inclusive, and guaranteed to bring the BOOM!

Smart Boards add a lot to the learning experience, but can be deficient in sound. This speaker system is a great way to enhance my students interaction with the music we sing, dance, and play to. I can’t wait to get started playing and creating music!
