My Students

I teach 800 students at my elementary school, for music class. I love the kids' enthusiasm for music creation I get to witness, when I am able to put tools in their hands, and ideas in their heads, which enable them to create music. I love to see the "a-ha" moments, when kids realize, "I can actually do this."

Our student population is a diverse mix of children from an urban environment, with approximately 50% of my classes being represented by different minorities.

Among them, a number of refugees from Burma and other countries are present.

The classes I teach also often include special education students that qualify for special education assistance.

Within our student population, 70% of my students qualify for free or reduced lunch.

My Project

Each child at my school has his/her own school-issued Chromebook. We use the Chromebooks during music class, especially with the website "Chrome Music Lab." During music class, often I say, "Put your headphones on and work on your project by yourself for a few minutes." Many children do bring their own headphones, as I ask them to, but there are always a few who don't. I would like to have a supply of inexpensive headphones, so I can simply give one to a child for him or her to keep.
