My Project

My 4th and 5th graders are AMAZING! Every year we do a year long project where they create a band and work together to make it rock! As the project has grown so has our need for additional instruments. I am hoping to get two electric basses for my budding rock stars to use.

Not only will my students be learning an additional rock band instrument, but they will be able to deepen their understanding about chords and harmony.

By utilizing the Modern Band curriculum I hope to continue to foster the love of music with my students.
