So, THANK YOU so very much for bringing this to life for us.\r\nThe wireless microphones have been INVALUABLE!!!! The freedom to move around and speak to students in a more amplified way has given us more reigns when it comes to disciplining behaviors that aren't conducive to learning while students are in our PE classes. Being able to be close up with our students has fostered a closer relationship with our students, while also being able to catch poor behavior choices early, ensuring we avoid potentially dangerous situations (fights within a class, or fights with students from other classes).\r\nAgain, we are ever so thankful for your generosity in providing our PE department with these materials, and we promise to continue to use them to enhance our lessons and units throughout the years to come.
