My Students

I am a elementary music teacher with students ranging in age from 5-11 in grades Kindergarten through fifth grade. Our students come from middle class families who work very hard for their little ones. And our little ones work so hard to do their best each and every day! I'm so proud of them.

My Project

With my second music teacher position being fairly new I am trying to build a great repertoire of instuments and materials to give them the music education they deserve. They will get to learn from a variety of instruments that helps them discover the many different sounds included in music as well as how they might be used in different settings. They will also get to learn about different cultures and the music that those cultures create through literacy. The variety of instruments and cultural books will help our students grow into well rounded, thoughtful musicians. All while having tons of fun!
