Help me give my students a sound to inspire them! My old speaker isn't loud and always needs charging. They need something louder so they can hear and feel the beat of the music that inspires their movements.

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
LVES is a performing arts magnet where the kids are very talented and love to perform. We do many different shows throughout the school year. We dance in a large auditorium where the sound can get lost. The speaker I have currently is not very loud, which makes it hard for the students to hear and feel the music. It also requires me to charge it often.
Getting a new speaker would help stop the interruption of instruction when I have to keep charging the old speaker.
The loudness of the sound helps inspire the students when they can feel the beat. Playing the music louder is also a cultural experience that they are comfortable with.
I have always bought my own technology, which makes it hard for me to keep upgrade. Your help with this speaker would be greatly appreciated by us all!
