My Project

"I would teach children music, physics, and philosophy; but most importantly music, for the patterns in music and all the arts are the keys to learning” (Plato)

Incorporating music into our day enhances the learning experience.

Recently, our classroom record player broke. One of our class jobs is the 'Class DJ'. This student gets to pick music to be played while students work and play in their centers. They are able to choose from our collection of vinyl: jazz, classical and bossanova classics.

The new instruments will also help to build our music center. Students will be able to play a variety of music along with the classics played in class. We hope to create a love of the arts and music in our young learners.
