I believe students learn music best when they are having fun. I have a huge classroom but it is sometimes difficult to have students participate in engaging activities like circle dances and games when there is not a defined space for students to stand or sit. By donating to this project, you will be helping my youngest students have enough seating on the floor during music lessons. My oldest students will benefit from seeing all the different music symbols on the rug. It will also help them while learning about the music staff. All students will benefit from having clearly defined spaces during activities such as dances, games and practice areas.
