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 Project

Help my students develop a solid foundation for playing instruments with proper form in the music room!

The best way to prepare for a lifetime of music is by starting with a solid foundation.

These chairs and stools will specifically help my upper grade students prepare for a lifetime of music education by practicing proper form during our pre-middle school preparation time, introduction to keyboard, and many more musical opportunities! All chairs and stools will be used by all students, and your gift will help them learn for years to come!
