Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate 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

In my elementary music classroom, we strive to bring music to life through various tools and musical concepts. Students sing, play instruments, and move around the room. However, what happened with COVID-19 and the inability to share materials is still an essential factor. Providing enough materials that we can each use our own is why this project is so important.

My students need scarves and ribbons to explore creativity in musical movement.

I need more scarves and ribbons to allow each student to participate. Although COVID seems less of a problem, the lessons we learned about maintaining as safe an environment as possible are still valid.

Creative movement is a proven way to keep learners engaged. Scarves and ribbons spark the imagination and can be used to explore many musical concepts. These activities also offer outlets to release healthy physical and emotional stress. Our program promotes healthy activities through music, singing, movement, and playing. We strive to elevate the minds of all learners every day in every aspect of ARTS.

Thank you in advance for supporting our students' educational opportunities through this project.
