Makin' Music With Our Printer!

Help me give my students the opportunity to print music whenever in the music classroom!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Shields's classroom raised $450

This project is fully funded

My Students

There is so much to love about my students. They are extremely diverse, especially when it comes to music. They have such a broad range of interests and ideas on how to express themselves musically. I am amazed each day by their creativity and their ability to pick up on learning new music so quickly. For some, music is the way my students are able to express themselves.

My Project

These materials will make a difference in my students' learning because a printer gives them the opportunity to decide on a new song to learn on the violin, piano, banjo, etc. and not have to wait until the following day for me to be able to print their music for them.

With a printer in our classroom, music education will happen even quicker!

Students can decide on a song while learning their instrument, and seconds later, they will be able to have the sheet music in their hands ready to practice!
