As a music teacher I incorporate books in all of my lessons. Sometimes the stories relate to a song, musician , instrument, or social emotional lesson. I am doing my part to show students how important reading is. Books create a discussion and also help to reinforce concepts we are learning in music. Students get excited to see what characters we read about or the different types of music.
My students have a love of music and now also a love of reading that will continue throughout school.
I also have an area where I display different books about different musicians. Students who sometimes need a break to refocus will grab a book and read about a musician. I want to continue to show my students that reading can be fun and exciting. There are also so many different subjects that are available to read about and my classroom offers some of them.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
