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

As a teacher, I strongly believe music plays a significant role in children's learning and development. I am requesting music supplies to enhance my students' learning abilities. By having access to instruments and equipment such as guitar picks, violin bows, shoulder rests, and a wireless microphone transmitter, my students can develop their musical talents and improve their cognitive skills.

These guitar picks, violin bows, shoulder rests, and wireless microphone transmitter will make a difference in their learning by providing them with hands-on experience playing musical instruments.

It will enable them to develop their fine motor skills, hand-eye coordination, concentration, and confidence in performing in front of a crowd. It will also allow them to express themselves creatively and develop their self-esteem.

My goals for this project are to offer my students a chance to explore their musical abilities and develop a love for music. I hope that they will find joy in playing instruments and become confident musicians. I also want them to learn how to work together as a team and develop their social skills.
