  • Rhythmic Learning: Music in Special Education

    Funded Dec 3, 2024

    On behalf of our elementary special education students, I want to extend our deepest gratitude for your generous donation of rhythm instruments. Your support will have a lasting impact on our students' lives, providing them with an invaluable opportunity to explore music, express themselves, and engage in creative learning.

    Rhythm instruments are more than just tools for musical education—they help foster coordination, teamwork, and emotional expression, all of which are essential for our students' growth and development. Thanks to your thoughtful contribution, our students will have the chance to experience the joy of music and build skills that will benefit them both in and out of the classroom.

    We are truly grateful for your kindness and commitment to making a positive difference in the lives of our students. Your generosity is helping to create a vibrant and inclusive learning environment, and we couldn’t be more thankful for your support.”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Erica

The products that I have selected will help my students by giving them additional learning options to make more effective learning choices. Technology is a learning strength shared by my students. The iPad will allow me to bring to my classroom a multitude of educational and Social Emotional resources that I already own. These will be extremely beneficial for some students that just need to another option to practice their skills in a manner they are gifted in. I have seen how choice can positively affect my students work and demeanor and hope that this technology based option will help us grow even more!
