My students love music and would love to have an outdoor space to be able to create it. We have a fenced in area where there is a framework to allow us to have a musical sound garden where my students can be empowered to create music during class or recess.
I teach in a K-4 school building.
My students love to be challenged musically and they participate in many school concerts. They are very creative and would love to have a space of their own to express their creativity on their own time. My school is very supportive of the arts and we have over five hundred twenty-five students.
My Project
The materials I am requesting will give my students the opportunity to create music outdoors and include TreeWorks and Abby Wind chimes, Joia tube mallets, drumsticks, percussion instruments, and garden hooks.
Students will learn how to work together to create music as an ensemble, and work independently to become a better composer. My students will be empowered through art to create their own music and work together as a team to make their music the best it could be. They will be empowered to work with other students toward a goal of making music that complements what others are doing. They will learn how to perform in an ensemble, and how to react to each other as musicians.
This project will greatly impact our entire school from Preschool to 4th grade because it will give my students the opportunity to create music.
My students will look forward to going outside to create music at recess time, and they will look forward to working together. Your generous support will help me expose my students to found sounds that can be adjusted to make beautiful music. I will be able to open the sound garden to allow students and children in the community. .
