Our students are absolutely thrilled to have music accompanying their activities, and it has brought a new level of excitement and energy to our lessons. From warm-ups to team games, having music playing creates a fun and motivating environment that keeps students fully engaged and eager to participate.\r\n\r\nSince incorporating the new system, I have seen a noticeable improvement in student involvement and enthusiasm. The rhythm and upbeat atmosphere make it easier for students to stay active and focused, and they are more willing to try new movements and activities. The addition of music has truly helped create a positive, lively space where students can enjoy movement and feel confident while learning new skills.\r\n\r\nAs a teacher, this music system has also been incredibly helpful. It allows me to transition smoothly between activities using sound cues, saving time and keeping classes running efficiently. The built-in microphone has been a tremendous asset as well, enabling me to project my voice clearly across the play area. This not only makes instruction safer—ensuring all students can hear expectations and directions—but also more effective. Your donation has made a meaningful difference in our classroom, and we are deeply grateful for your support.","fullyFundedDate":1760693646231,"projectUrl":"project/pump-up-the-volume-for-pe/9715969/","projectTitle":"Pump Up the Volume for PE","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Fries","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-7_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/mrs-fries"},{"teacherId":8087259,"projectId":9787670,"letterContent":"We can't thank you all enough.
