Help me give my students a year subscription to Essential Elements music software.
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Downing's classroom raised $424
This project is fully funded
My Project
One of the most important things for a music teacher to have is engaging and fun-filled lessons! A big part of that is to have access to all the elements that go into that! What I love about the software Essential Elements, is its access to all that. It includes teaching plans and lessons from PreK on up! These include the national music standards and objectives. It has 500+ songs with weekly updates, access to many online method books, interactive resources, and shareable playlists! Additionally, it give me access to the digital copies of Music Express magazine!
Last year, using this software made my teaching soar!
My students learned a lot and I did too! I was able to expand and develop of music skills with ease! In developing my knowledge, I was able to share more with my students! I hope to be able to continue that this year as well, furthering musical education outside of the classroom.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
