My Students

I teach such an incredible group of 2nd graders in a charter school with a rigorous academic curriculum. These students are working hard in Science, Language arts, and Social Studies, and I want to give the as many resources as possible to learn about the world around them.

"Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world." - Nelson Mandela

"The function of education is to teach one to think intensively and to think critically. Intelligence plus character - that is the goal of true education"- Martin Luther King, Jr

My Project

Music was a large part of my education growing up, and I'm so disheartened to see that music education in my state isn't typically introduced until Jr. High, if at all. I started playing the recorder in 2nd grade, and an instrument in 4th. I want my students to have the same privilege.

"Music education opens doors that help children pass from school into the world around them a world of work, culture, intellectual activity, and human involvement.

The future of our nation depends on providing our children with a complete education that includes music." - Gerald Ford

I completely believe this. Please help my classroom see the benefit of music education at an early age.
