Funded Aug 12, 2021The 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
