My Project

Musical literacy has been a focus this year with my students. We have been using dry erase boards and beginning to use work sheets. It would be helpful for students to have more markers to use in the classroom in addition to having a place to easily store their work!

This is why I am asking for folders for the music classroom and more dry erase markers.

These essential classroom tools will help us become more organized, and will give us the essential resources needed for the classroom.

My students have amazing ears and are amazing singers. The skills they are learning by becoming musically literate will enhance all of their current music making!
