High Country Elementary School Supply List

I've been helping out with sound and lighting at an elementary school for 30 years. In the last few, I've expanded into video productions of their 5th grade junior versions of Broadway plays. It's always been a problem getting the video POV high enough with a tripod that I don't catch audience heads. We now have 3 of these mounted high on the back wall of the former-gym-turned-auditorium and they work wonderfully with my 4K center and 2 2K side cameras.

I use this to pickup elementary school students in their musicals. Excellent pickup capabilities without feedback.

Evergreen Elementary gets a supply of these each fall since no warranty covers a second grader sitting on the headset when he fails to pay attention, etc. The headsets work very well and block out competing student noise (inevitable at this level). Nobody has complained about comfort problems in use. By next year we will have replaced all the headsets in the school-some 300.

I bought this ring light for my wife, an elementary school teacher. Due to the pandemic, she will be teaching from home so it's important that her students and colleagues be able to see and hear her. This light is perfect right out of the box. After searching other online markets, I knew I had to go with a known brand (Godox) and a qualified retailer (B&H Photo). The controls are better situated than the LR120 and the color temperature requires no additional filters to change. I don't know if we'll use the phone holder because it screws into one of five threaded inserts, although it also looks like it might accept a cold shoe. Time will tell. But with virtually no effort, this light is already working perfectly. You will need a light stand, so take that under consideration.

I've been providing audio and video services for an elementary school for years. I needed something to get a camera higher over the audiences' heads than my tripod would go when filming kids' performances. This was just the thing. It's mounted securely into a cinderblock wall and holds my 4K Canon camcorder just fine. I'm going to order 2 more to hold the additional cameras we use when recording their upcoming musical play. Great purchase for the price!

The annual challenge: Elementary school Christmas play, with professional results. This microphone met the challenge. Audio was clean sounding with good frequency response, using a flat, hard surface, table with about foot of clear table space. This microphone has excellent sensitivity. I used this microphone within five miles of a 50,000 watt AM station with no RFI problem. I highly recommend this product.

The cords were exactly what we need to run our elementary school news show. They were very east to use and the package came very quickly.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been doing virtual school for my elementary school-aged children this year, and there were times where I really needed to be able to show them things on a larger screen. This adapter has made it so that I can hook up my laptop to our television screen with ease, and show them everything that they need to see. It has made the experience so much easier.

I am an art teacher, so I bought this to cut mats for the elementary school art show. This tool went above and beyond my expectations. Used a regular t-square as my straight edge and it cuts mats evenly with ease. I like that it has setting for different depths, so I also used to cut down some foam board. Works like a charm. Blades were included, too.

This adaptor is just what I needed for my elementary school news show. We now no longer have to remember to charge our camera. I wish it would have been included with the camera when we purchased it.
