Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Students

I teach all of the classes music at my school, all grade levels from Pre K to 5th grade. This school has not had a music program for almost two decades. I would love to incorporate a "modern band" program where students can learn to play ukulele, guitar, bass, piano and more. Developing muscle memory and small motor coordination is essential at this age. Students will also make literacy and math connections that will increase cognitive abilities not only for school, but for a lifetime. For this year, I would like to create a Piano lab with 30 pianos!

My Project

I hope that students will return to PS88Q excited! In order to help inspire them, I would like a piano lab at the school. Students from ages K-5 will spend a period of time during the in school curriculum studying and practicing the piano independently. It will no doubt be highly effective in not only inspiring students to take music education seriously, but is all-encompassing in scope, as students will develop in ways that they would not be able to without this opportunity. Help us continue the standard of excellent music education in my third year at PS88Q!
