Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate 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

My school is a multicultural inner city school full of 550+ ambitious students. Most of my students love to watch and/or participate in our school's performing arts. But as the school was being remodeled, the stage was completely eliminated and our performing arts program suffered.

Given the socioeconomic status of the area, most of my students haven't had the opportunity to participate in performing arts programs outside of school.

And given the cultural diversity in my school's area, most of my students aren't even aware of the performing arts programs that are available.

This is my seventh year at my current school and I'm slowly rebuilding my school's performing arts program. I started with an honor choir, and I've slowly added dance and drama. And hopefully, by creating a network of support, it will enable my performing arts program to grow even more.

My Project

A well loved music teacher will always have a multitude of resources. Therefore I am always looking for new ways to make learning music fun. In this project, I am requesting several items that either I don’t already possess or have been worn out or broken over time.

With my students having been supplied with laptops and tablets, many have taken a great interest in our online music curriculum, games, and activities.

Some have even taken an interest in learning piano via free online tutorials. This is why headphones will be a great addition to my class. Having these headphones available for my students would eliminate the frustration of 25+ trying to focus on their own creations in one small classroom.

The scarves, ribbons, and claves are used in the classroom so often that they just need replacing after time.

And of course, books are always a great thing in any setting.

So with your support, all 600 students within my school will benefit from new and fun learning tools to make music class even better.
