Our students truly love music-making! They come from many different backgrounds and abilities but music is something that unites them. The music program at our school has help students build a sense of community. Music has been a confidence and find joy in education. Our students are eager to learn music and willing to take risks in music-making. Our music classroom is a place the children can go to continue to create unity, explore, learn, and grow through music.
My Project
Our project will help support students to learn dances and songs from other cultures. Music is a powerful way to implement culturally responsive education.
Culturally responsive education benefits all students to become respectful of the cultures and people they'll interact with, inside and outside the classroom.
"Through participation, sharing, and cooperation, music connects children with other members of their culture and the greater society. Music can help familiarize children with the musical heritage of different cultures, regions, and ethnic groups. When children listen to and respond to music from different cultures, they play a part in preserving and passing on cultural traditions. Children are exposed to languages, customs, and beliefs of varying cultures through music." (Isenberg & Jalongo, 2010, p. 190-191).
By helping us fund our project you are helping us better the world through multicultural music education! Thank you for your support!
