Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

Music literacy centers offer meaningful learning experiences where students work independently or collaboratively to meet music literacy goals. Independent work time supports children's abilities to self-direct their learning. So I am asking for help in this process by requesting a Teachers Pay Teachers gift card.

Teachers Pay Teachers is the go-to place for educators to find the resources, knowledge, and inspiration they need to teach at their best.

After we read a music book in class, I always ask my students comprehension questions to see how well they understood the material. With fictional music stories such as Trombone Shorty and Trombone Shorty, I can ask questions about the setting, characters, and plot. When we read nonfiction music books such as Celia Cruz, and Queen of Salsa, students can find important facts about a composer or a musician.

This Teachers Pay Teachers gift card will allow me to find more resources to extend their knowledge on more musical topics.
