My older classroom music students do not have the opportunity to learn recorder this year. Therefore, I want to supply them with ukulele's to instill a love and passion for musical instruments. All the students should have individual instruments to learn properly. Currently, I bring rhythm sticks to hit together or four mini xylophone's that the students share. They love music class, regardless of our lack of materials. The students have learned teamwork and have significantly improved in their socialization and self-esteem through music. Music plays an important role in education and brain development; these students will become better readers, writers, and mathematicians through learning how to read music. Music motivates the students in all aspects of life! It teaches them intrinsic motivation and teaches them patience. They have expressed interest in joining an ensemble next year and I want to prepare them for this any way I can.
