Mrs. F. Audubon Elementary School
Dubuque, IA Grades 3-5

Let the arts come in alive in my students through music! Teaching in a high poverty school, I am the K-5 Music Teacher. I want my students to experience music in the best possible way!

Our district has purchased a music program that has the capabilities to be shown through a viewsonic projector. This is an awesome way for my students to be actively engaged in their learning through interactive listening and singing maps.

Right now, we are fumbling with an old computer, with students tripping over chords. We are looking for a laptop and cart with mobile capabilities to make our learning truly come alive. Whatever you can do to help, it would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

You can make our dreams come true with your donation. Our kids deserve the best...because their home-life and financial situations don't allow them to have the best! I want to provide an interactive and fun way for them to experience the arts. We all know that the arts makes our students smarter through all the creative channels it opens for them.
