Statewide Reach for Local Impact

FIND IT FUND IT FLORIDA

I am constantly searching for ways to get students excited to learn and stay engaged. The Qball microphone is a fun, soft, and colorful ball that makes classroom discussions more interactive. It’s wireless and easy to pass around, encouraging students to get involved by tossing it to each other during activities. Despite its playful design, the Qball provides clear audio, ensuring that every student’s voice is heard and boosting overall participation. My goal is to utilize the Qball microphone to enhance student engagement and support specific learning standards. The Qball will be a wonderful addition to our science lab, and will foster a more interactive and inclusive environment. The possibilities are endless in what can be achieved with student confidence, self-esteem, and oral language skills.

The Qball will create an engaging atmosphere that will encourage students to contribute actively during discussions and activities. The Qball aligns with our school’s priority of enhancing student communication skills and increasing engagement across all grade levels.

The Qball supports key standards such as:

ELA.5.C.2.1: Presenting information orally with logical sequence, appropriate volume, clear pronunciation, and pacing.
ELA.5.C.5.1: Arranging multimedia elements to create emphasis in oral tasks.
ELA.5.C.5.2: Utilizing effective oral communication skills in various contexts.
