My Project

I love teaching music to kindergarten and 1st grade students. They are so excited and love learning the different musical sounds, playing instruments, and moving to music.

These instruments will help my students learn their letters, colors, and rhythm in a fun musical way.

It will help with teaching them to play as a group and be able to feel, follow, and read music.

Having music in the schools is very important for our children's development. They love learning and singing new songs, but being able to play instruments is a big advantage. Thank you for supporting my tiny musicians!!
