My Students

My students are incredibly lucky in that they are able to receive music instruction every week. Our school is a K-3 facility that serves over 600 students. Inevitably, most of our youngest students have a very limited music education. Our school and district strive to feel and meet every child's needs for arts education in a very positive, uplifting, and exciting method. Our faculty, parents, and students all believe that the arts are essential to the proper growth of both our children and our community.

My Project

The requested iPad will be used to run several digital musical instruments that will provide students with a performance opportunity at a professional level regardless of their physical, social, or musical maturity. Assistive music technology tools are incredible performance devices that can provide methods for children of any level to perform with their peers. Unfortunately, these devices are limited by the computing power of older devices. The materials being requested will allow up to 6 students the ability to perform at the same time using a single device. This is a tremendous increase from our present option of only one performer.
