My Project

Fridays have become known as “Fun Friday” in my music classroom. Most weeks, I have the same groups of students on Mondays and Fridays before the rotation moves on. To try and keep schedules similar and pacing in track, I use Fridays to play games and explore music centers.

The more centers I create for my students, the harder storage becomes.

I’m hoping these mesh bags can be a solution to keep most of the supplies together so that students can have everything they need for a center right at their hands.

The markers will be used for centers as well. I also use them for daily class use and have found that I simply don’t have enough reds or blues for everybody. Sharing is caring, but not when you have 6-7 kids at a table all waiting for the same color!
