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
Please help me make my dream of a music creation lab for my classroom a reality! I teach a learning center class for high school students with disabilities. In my class, students work on core academic skills to help catch them up to grade level. To help with motivating students and make my classroom more engaging, I would like to add learning centers to my classroom where students would have an option to explore creative activities after they finish their core classwork.
I would like to create a music composition station that would allow students to explore sounds, samples and loops to create their own compositions using the keyboard midi controller and related music software.
I can use my background in music education to setup fun composition activities for my students to teach them basic music theory and production.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
