My students learn through play and having hands-on materials. They are not engaged with just listening to music and, at times, are uninterested. They have a sense of pride and increases self-esteem when participating in any way. These different items will make sure they have fun in large group participation and teach them the functional use of an object (i.e., bells make music when you shake and do not go in the mouth). In my class, I make sure all my students can participate in an activity, which requires adapting and modifying according to each student's unique needs. The items I have chosen will ensure all of my students can participate. Jingle bells are popular in most preschool classrooms, and I choose different types of bells. My medically fragile students will have more options and be able to participate with movements of their arms if they are unable to grasp an object. In contrast, my students with sensory challenges can enjoy the colored ribbons as they shake their bells. They will have more independence and will be able to add sounds to one of their favorite songs, "Hurry, Hurry Drive the Firetruck." The music set will introduce different sounds and will require students to tap, shake, or wave the item, having them explore different types of movement. My students will also examine each instrument's various sounds and learn how to work in a large group or independently. The rhythm sticks will help with self-regulation, stay on a beat, and hand and eye coordination.
