Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
Playing the ukulele is a valuable experience for elementary music students. It supports their development of fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination. Playing the ukulele builds musical understanding, boosts confidence and creativity, encourages group collaboration and listening skills and is easy to learn and a kid-friendly size.
A well-tuned ukulele enhances the learning experience and supports students musical growth.
A Roadie 3 automatic ukulele tuner would be a valuable tool in an elementary music classroom for quickly and accurately tuning a classroom set of ukuleles. It saves time, ensures consistent tuning across all instruments, and is easy for teachers and students to use.
Tuning a full class set of ukuleles takes time. This tool would make it possible for students to accurately tune ukuleles to help in the music classroom, without a risk of damage or string breakage.
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
