My Students

This year will be an entirely new year with all new students. They will be full of curiosity, motivation, and the willingness to learn.

They are very bright and ready and I want so much to have the tools to expand their world!

After having to learn virtually last year they will be so excited to be back in the classroom, ready to explore the world of science, math, STEM, and more.

My Project

As a child, I grew up with every genre of music and also musicians ! When the family got together they played jazz, rag time, and even songs from Vaudeville. I can play guitar, lap harp and concertina, and being child- size they will try also.

As a child I was given a guitar and the opportunity to play, and that's what I want to give back.

I want my classroom to be a place where children can always have access to music.

The CD's that I chose are both multicultural and can teach the students diversity acceptance through music. The Furinno shelf will allow me to store our equipment.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
