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 Students

Our music room is a safe and fun place where my students make music together. They walk into the room, I grab my ukulele, and we sing hello to each other. Despite challenges they might have, I want my students to find comfort in music.

I teach every student in our school from pre-kindergarteners to 5th graders, nearly a total of 500 students, at a Title I elementary school in Washington Heights in Manhattan, New York City.

Many of my students come from a Hispanic background and are learning English. For most of them, our music class is the only opportunity for their music lessons. Therefore, I want to make our time together as meaningful as possible.

I am thrilled to be their new music teacher and to share my love of music with my students. Our school provides a safe learning environment for our students, and I will do my best to provide my young musicians with the right tools and opportunities.

My Project

One of the things that I want my students to learn in our music class is how to read music. There is no doubt that making music, singing and playing instruments, is a lot of fun to many of my students. However, that can be so much more meaningful when you can actually understand how music is written and how you can write down the music you make. I want to teach my students that powerful skill, and I hope that their ability to read music will empower their desire to pursue music even after they graduate.

With a printer in our music room, my students will be able to study music notations much more effectively.

They can not only study how music is written by looking at printed music but also quickly print out their own compositions when we use music notation software like Noteflight.

I truly want my students to learn how to read music, and I have no doubt that having a printer in the music room will help achieve that. Thank you for your consideration.
