I'm a music teacher with big classes and a small voice. I would like to request a headset microphone so that my students can hear me clearly as I give directions and as we sing together.
My students are working hard for success.
We are a Title I school and my students need every helping hand we can give them to reach success, because when they succeed they will not merely reach their goals they will exceed them. Our school is also growing and as such my classes almost all have between 25-35 students. Because I teach music, the increased class size means that our music class is bursting with young voices, buzzing with additional recorders and ringing with the sound of drums playing. Sometimes it's hard for even the most focused students to hear my instructions. A microphone is a perfect solution.
My Project
I am requesting an aerobic instructor headset microphone. I am very excited about this microphone because rather than wearing the receiver in a pocket or on a belt, this special microphone has the receiver on the headband. This frees up the person wearing the microphone entirely to move easily around the room. This microphone will transform my classroom as it allows me to be heard from anywhere in the classroom while allowing me to easily move and dance without having to fear that I'll loose my microphone.
Even the most focused students loose their focus when they can't hear.
Even the most vocally cautious music teacher can teach more comfortably with a microphone. Won't you help my class by providing a microphone?
Nearly all students from low‑income households
