I have three schools total that I rotate and teach elementary music at. Two of the schools I have limited materials and space. Those two schools are Title I schools that are just not equiped with a designated Visual Art and Music rooms. I am moved around often. One school doesn't have a piano that is in working order. We have an old upright, but it is not in good shape and can't be moved. It won't even stay tuned if we paid the $115 to tune it. The keys stick and some do not sound at all. I do have access to a laptop and projector with a smart board to aid in teaching my lessons. I have at least 5 working Orff Xylophones at one school. The other school has 11, but they are ancient. My kids are what drives me. They posses mad talents and I can't wait to see the good they bring into the world one day.
