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
I am writing this proposal for my students who participate in our music program. Our elementary school serves a large urban area and has a high percentage of students from low-income homes. Our student body is culturally diverse and provides our school community an opportunity to experience music and customs from many cultures as we interact every day. Creating and encouraging music learning opportunities for our diverse student population promotes inclusion and diversity in our educational programs.
Many of my students do not have the opportunity to explore and experience high-quality music instruction outside of the school setting.
It is exciting to see my students grow in their knowledge and excitement of music. Many of our students will continue their participation in music at the high school level.
Our project will introduce drone technology to inspire my music students to pursue greater accomplishments in music. The use of drones in our learning activities will give students a concrete example of how STEM concepts can be applied to real-world situations. We are interested in using the drone to acquire high-quality cinematic aerial movies and pictures of student performances. Hands-on technology like drones in the classroom will provide learning for students who may never have a chance to experience this kind of learning outside of the school setting.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
