Celebrating 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
Hello! I’m reaching out to ask for some resources for my students at school. With these extra tools, we can really make a difference in their lives and make our community a safer and better place for our kids. And the best part? These resources will make learning more fun and engaging.
My goal is to give each student a memorable and enriching musical education.
The lessons they learn in music class will not only benefit them personally, but they’ll also learn valuable skills that will help them become responsible citizens of the world.
These light-up drumsticks will let students play along with a variety of songs, rhythms, and even have a visual accompaniment. They’ll learn to play different notes, like whole notes, half notes, and quarter notes. The cushion seats will make sure they’re comfortable and supported during lessons that don’t require much movement, so they can stay engaged and well-rested.
The tuners will teach my students how to tune a variety of instruments, help other students, and take ownership of their learning. And the chair pockets and music stand will keep the music room organized and clean for almost 600 students who come in every week. The music room is the busiest room in the school, so having an organized room is super important so students can enter and start learning right away.
My students are really determined and hardworking, and they’re working hard to achieve their goals and dreams, even though they come from a low-income community. They’re actively making our community and the world a better place. I’m asking for these resources to help them learn even more and succeed even better.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
