My students are talented violin and cello players in Grades K-5 in our schools' string program. All children are very excited to be back to in-person learning and making music together.
Many students didn't have access to instruments during remote learning and now have to re-start learning how to play a string instrument from the very beginning level.
At times it might be challenging and frustrating for kids not being able to play their instrument at the level they were before the pandemics and learning fully remotely. We take it slowly, one step at a time to relearn the proper bow hold and proper posture.
My Project
Our school is a Title I school with students coming from very low-income families and for many of our children, these selected and desirable items will bring happiness and a smile to their faces as well as it will keep them motivated to practice daily.
Students will take their prizes home and they will be used at school also (fidget toys for re-focus and calming, pencils, erasers for classroom use, coloring pencils for Arts and Crafts projects at home and at school).
I know that all children will be so highly motivated and will try their best to get awarded a little prize.
More than three‑quarters of 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
