My Project

My students would like more instruments in our class so we can learn music beyond the walls of our classroom as we study and learn about different countries, communities, and cultures through song.

I see my students working on their cooperation, coordination and singing skills while performing on instruments in class.

I see them learning how to keep a steady beat and follow melodic lines and follow music in a fun, singing manner.

My long term goal is to use this as a way to reach our community through experiences outside of the classroom.
