Enhancing Classroom Learning with Clear Audio

Help me give my students the enhancement of great sounding sound system in the music room.

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Feder's classroom raised $273

This project is fully funded

My Project

In our music classroom, clear and quality sound is essential for engaging students during educational videos, presentations, and music analysis. Currently, our projector's built-in speakers struggle to deliver clear audio, making it difficult for many students to fully participate and absorb the lesson.

I’m requesting a Bose speaker to improve the audio experience for all students.

This soundbar will deliver crisp, clear sound and allow us to connect multiple devices easily. Whether we’re watching educational documentaries, listening to instrumental music, or engaging in interactive learning games, this enhanced sound system will help make lessons more accessible and enjoyable.

Better audio quality will support students with varying hearing needs, help reduce distractions, and foster a more inclusive and dynamic learning environment.

How This Will Help My Students:

Improve comprehension during multimedia lessons

Support students with hearing difficulties

Create an engaging, immersive learning environment

Thank you for considering a donation to bring this vital audio upgrade to our classroom!
