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 Students
I have been teaching at this school since October 2016. I teach in a pre-kindergarten to 8th-grade school with around 850 students; I see all of them. These students come from various cultural backgrounds. Forty-three percent of the school is ELL (English Language Learners.) There are very large-sized classes and varied levels of English speaking students.
Since I am in a poverty-stricken neighborhood, resources are very limited.
These students have very limited instruments in our music classroom.
Being a young, new teacher, this is very challenging to support me and my classroom. The reason I am asking for this is that my students deserve a classroom that right now I can not give them. I want to help my students in every way and I hope you can help me, help them.
My Project
The modern band uses the method of music-making to give any students the ability to succeed as a musician at any level, skill, or ability. These method books are to help with independent practice and instruction in a class. During the time of distance learning, giving the students the ability to have their method books that include popular music to help learn, is essential to learning.
These books use popular music to help teach all students of all levels at the same time.
Having these resources distantly or face to face will help all learners succeed.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
