My Project

Each student is unique in their own way. In my classroom, I encourage my students to create, present, and work together as a team! I want my classroom to be a place where they can comfortably learn in a safe and exciting environment.

My classroom is comprised of 5th and 6th-grade hard-working students, many of whom come from a variety of different backgrounds.

I encourage my students to bring their creative minds into our classroom every day but to do so, we need a Behringer PMP2000D 14-Channel 2000W Powered Mixer. A 14 Channel Power Mixer will help us use our recently funded Wireless Microphone System. It is one of essential my students will need to take a hands-on approach to learning and allow them to feel like they are on Broadway with these hands free devices. We will use these to create and complete their upcoming play Lion King Jr. next spring! The sky is the limit with the right materials at hand.
