I teach HeadStart at a Title 1 district in East Texas. I have a SmartBoard in my room that is connected to a computer system that I use all day every day. This board does not have a speaker directly hooked up to it so I have been using my personal Bluetooth speaker for anything we do on the board that involves sound. With 4-year-olds, that involves songs for learning letters, numbers, words, and everything in between. It also involves many moving brain breaks throughout the day and music for transitions. Our Region that services HeadStart provided us with the only speakers they have but they simply weren't loud at all.
I would like a Bluetooth speaker that would be specifically for our class so I do not have to wear out my personal speaker and transport it from school to home as I use it in both locations regularly. I know this seems trivial, but it is such an important asset to our daily routines!
Thanks so much in advance! :)
