Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

Our students and teachers are dedicated to high-quality instruction, and our fine arts program will give us another layer of impactful experiences. When provided with the necessary tools to learn about instruments and the overall history of music our students will take home the love for different music and the background knowledge of all the different cultures and the ways they express themselves through songs and music. My students are extremely insterested in music and have shown interest in the instruments used in the music they listen to as well as the history of music. Each of these instruments plays a crucial role in a marching band's percussion section, contributing to the overall sound and rhythm of the ensemble.

All these instrument will help our students learn not only how to play but the crucial role they play in a band but most importantly will help them in other subjects such as math and science.
