My Project

My students love to play music, sing, and dance. We make time every day to express ourselves through music. With this speaker and guitar, we will be able to take our music outside! We are lucky to have a large campus with lots of areas away from other classrooms to blast music, sing loudly, jump around, and express ourselves through music and dance. In addition, this guitar is a student size, so I can teach students some basics and (hopefully) spark an interest in playing. We use beach chairs as "author chairs" for students to sit in when they share creative writing or poetry.
