My Project

For this project I am trying to fill in some gaps in my students' connections with learning. Many students are more focused, excited by, and remember learning when the material is hands on.

We are asking for a document camera specifically for the music room, a class set of scissors, a class set of clipboards, and cardstock to help our students find new ways to connect with musical concepts.

The youngest groups are building connections with rhythm, dynamics, and basic concepts regarding pitch while the older students are applying reading music that had been written and published. The items we need will help us be successful through the end of our year as well as in the future of our learning. We are constantly adapting and changing to make sure our learning is effective and efficient!
