There is a video guide at the bottom of this page and a PDF of these instructions you can download/print too.

​

The microphones can be found in the cupboard in Alice’s classroom along with a tripod that can fit an iPad. (This all works just the same on an iPhone too.)

 

  1. The receiver slots into the charging port of the iPad and will automatically be on when connected.

  2. There is a small “on/off” button on the rear of the microphone beneath the clip. There is a blue light to show when they are on. The microphones are numbered but they are exactly the same. 

  3. You can test the microphones by opening the voice memo app and tapping the microphone and seeing the sound spikes on the voice memo screen.

  4. The microphone will work even if the iPad is on the other side of the classroom.

    •  They are sensitive so there is no need for shouting.

    • Children should not tilt their heads down or try to move closer to the microphone!

  5. Remember to turn the microphones off and recharge them before packing up and returning.
