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

In my school, my students are used to have a great experience in the music classroom. They love playing different instruments. My kids are fun, respectful, musically talented, and very smart. They love playing at shows and participate in different musical activities. Unfortunately, this school year due to the pandemic situation, we have not had the financial support adequate for enriching our music program to get enough the instruments and materials for our students.

My students will appreciate having new instruments and materials to play on music shows!

They always enjoy when we get a brand new instrument and more opportunities for everyone to play without sharing; therefore, as a teacher, it will be a great satisfaction to provide what they need to be successful in the classroom and use these items to make our classroom a happier place.

My Project

Every single requested item in this project will make a difference in our classroom. For example, a new instrument will help my students to play a good quality instrument. The ukulele cases will help keep the instruments safe when traveling for concerts. The method books will enrich the rest of the music programs we learn in every grade level, and the masks will help a child in need who cannot have one special mask for wind instruments.

All of the items are ordered with a special purpose to make our music classroom a happy place.
