My Project

Hi there-

I am Mrs. R.

and I love the arts, including music. As a preschool inclusion special education teacher and an experienced singer, I plan on incorporating music in my classroom through singing simple songs with fun rhythms. Our music center is lacking the instruments we need to be successful and creative. I would love to have some assorted children's instruments in the center as well as an age-appropriate book about music.

Also, our art center needs some revamping! Please help me with markers and crayons that will help us through the school year. Improving our fine motor skills in class is a must for preschoolers. I want to make sure we have fresh markers and crayons to do that all year.
