Loud Speaker for Students to Hear Lesson

Help me give my students a speaker to hear the Smart Board to enjoy interactive lessons.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Harden's classroom raised $242

This project is fully funded

My Students

I currently have a total of fifty students between both of my third grade classes. My students are awesome students who have a love for learning, technology, reading, writing, science, math, and social studies. They are very excited about learning, and I want to make the class interactive. I want to help them succeed in their everyday challenging environment. I teach an inclusion class. I have four students that are autistic in my class. They blend right in with my students. We're one big happy family where everyone understands and respects one another.

My Project

In our small classroom of fifty students, we have a Smart Board that allows students to engage in math and reading lessons. However, with a room full of active students no one can hear the board to understand the lesson. Right now they spend majority of the time fussing and bickering over not being able to hear the story.

With a new speaker, my students will be able to hear and see the lesson loud and clear!

In today's day and age, technology is the way of the future. My students have the ambition to perform well in reading and math if they were given a fair chance.
