My Students

We are a multicultural classroom. The majority of our students receive free or reduced-price lunch. We have a large population of migrant students from various places. The largest group is students from Somalia. For some of our students, this is their first time going to school in America.

Many of our students are trauma-impacted, low-income students.

These students view school as their safe place and a place where they can be themselves. We have a very supportive community that is built mostly of refugees.

My Project

We are looking for a louder speaker for the classroom. We watch videos and do a lot of interactive activities that require volume from the teacher's computer. The speaker we currently have is not very loud and some students struggle to hear from it. We also tend to move around a lot and would like a speaker that would be able to move around with us.

Being able to hear helps bring our lessons to life.

It would be great to be able to hear great from anywhere in our classroom as well as larger spaces. We also like to play music to help us focus.
