My Project

Young students LOVE to get up and move! What better way to move than to use our imagination and gallop around the room while riding a pool noodle horse!

We can ride our "horses" to show tempo, dynamics, and form in all kinds of musical pieces.

These are a few of the many ways to incorporate "horses" in the music room. Also, imaginary play is fun and exciting.

The supplies in this grant will enable me to create 30 pool noodle horses to be enjoyed by our CD through first grade students.
