Put Learning to a Song!

My students need an acoustic guitar and guitar bag.

Mrs. Carroll Clay Hill Elementary School
Jacksonville, FL Grades PreK-2

I teach second grade in a rural area that has a high percentage of illiterate adults. These adults struggle to help their children which means the children struggle also.

I use a lot of songs in the classroom. I would love to be able to put guitar music to the songs to give learning that special touch of music and fun. We have songs for nouns, atoms, fall, etc.

We need a guitar to serve as our music for our learning songs. We need a guitar to put life into our learning songs. A guitar will give learning about nouns and skip counting fun through music.

Think how easy it is to learn the words to your favorite songs! That is why I use music in the classroom to learn our objectives such as reading, math, and science.
