  • Skills and Thrills

    Funded Jan 23, 2022

    Thanks for thinking of us! We’re excited to move forward with the desire to teach our kids being front and center. They have been so good to work around the many disturbances Covid caused and are still giving it their all. And I know that these items will help them go further!”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Whitby

    This classroom project was brought to life by Utah State Board of Education.

  • Share Music

    Funded May 5, 2021

    We were so excited to have this project funded! Covid still plays a very real part in our ability to teach all students. With these resources, I was able to find programs that would allow me to create thoughtful lessons that could be used for students here in class and those that were at-home learning. This task was made easier through your help.

    The students were most excited because we were doing things in a different manner. We learned from a really hard year of online learning that we couldn't go about teaching music in the same old way. We needed to reinvent how we were presenting the information and we needed to engage our learners on a different level. Your donations helped us succeed in that. Students are now able to do more practicing and learning at home, and that is making life so much better for our program.”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Whitby

  • Share the Music Even More!

    Funded Aug 12, 2021

    The students have thoroughly enjoyed being able to use the materials purchased with your donations. We live in a small town and I told them my main goal was to show them a world through music. I wanted to stretch their brains past the little town that we live in and show them that there was more to life.

    The students have enjoyed sharing jokes with each other about music at the beginning of class. It has created the opportunity on several occasions to be able to have a discussion on composers or cultures not familiar with students.

    As we listen to music from around the world, students are also learning about the culture that created that music. We share things we've learned with one another and when we can we even share the food! It's been a great opportunity for learning and I'm so grateful to you for supporting my class in this effort!”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Whitby

Remote learning is now a part of every educational atmosphere. Unfortunately, a lot of materials that were standard before COVID do not translate to online learning due to copyright issues. We're attempting to help our students have more access to fun lessons and projects that can grow their experience with music and help them gain a greater appreciation. These TPT lessons will be fun things that we can use with students both online at home, and those that attend in person in the classroom setting. This will allow for more diversification of the way I teach and what I am able to teach students. We want to expand our students' access to music knowledge by offering more courses.
