Help me give my students music notation software to help them compose their own music.
FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Gould's classroom raised $215
This project is fully funded
My Project
My students really enjoy writing music. One of their favorite things to do as they are learning to play instruments is to show me the new and inventive sounds they can create. They also love working together to create new sounds in small groups.
This note-writing software will allow them to channel their already creative energy into something tangible.
They will be able to print and share their songs, as well as adding lyrics and instruments. This software will also help them to learn the fundamentals of reading and writing music.
This software is also compatible with all of my students' available technology, as well as providing opportunities to learn about MIDI instruments. This software will help bring my students' creativity into the 21st Century.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
