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
My Middle School is a very diverse high needs school of about 1,500 6th, 7th, and 8th grade students. Over half of the students qualify for free or reduced lunch. My classroom encourages diversity through many genres of music from around the world. We often share how culture promotes variations in music.
MUSIC TOUCHES US ALL IN MANY DIFFERENT WAYS!
Chorda is multi-sensory instrument that will engage students to create music like never before. Chorda is a powerful, all-in-one musical instrument that functions as both a standalone synthesizer and an expressive MIDI controller. Drawing inspiration from guitar, piano, and drums, it offers touch-sensitive pads, a strummable smart bridge, and intuitive gestural controls for dynamic, expressive play. Chorda lets you layer sounds, create loops, and seamlessly integrate with your music software and hardware instruments, giving you full creative control of your next production.
More than half 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
