Makin' Some Noise!

My students need a Lapel mic voice amplification system to be able to better hear in the classroom.

This project expired on October 5, 2009.

I teach 5th grade in a high-need area. Every day is a challenge for students. I am striving to create a positive learning environment for them.

I have a large classroom and it is often difficult to speak loudly enough for everyone to hear. Most of the time I end up feeling as though I am yelling at the students that I am standing near. When students are answering questions or reading aloud it can be difficult for them to be heard as well.

Every teacher strives to make their classroom a safe and trusting place. The voice amplification system will help make my classroom a better place for everyone. We will all be able to hear each other without raising our voices.

Your help will ensure that my students have a positive learning environment where there is no need to yell.
