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

Every year, I use music to help children learn. We always create a class playlist, enter school performances, and include dancing in the classroom. With the proper setup, I can take music and learn to the next level.

Studies have shown that music produces several positive effects on a human's body and brain.

Music activates both the left and right brain at the same time, and the activation of both hemispheres can maximize learning and improve memory. My goal is for students to not only use music for learning by writing songs, but also for social-emotional effects.
