My Project

My students love physical education class! During all physical education classes music is played for all activities! The students warm up to music each day. Music is also used as a start and stop signal for students to start, end or change activities during our class. Students participate in minute to win it challenges, tabata exercises, dance, and many other workouts all that are played over the speaker. Our current speaker's battery just died and we are in need of a new speaker to use daily in our physical education classes!
