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 third graders are energetic learners. They come to school ready to learn with inquisitive minds that are like sponges. My students are eager to learn.
I teach at a large urban elementary Title I school, in which one hundred percent of the students are eligible for a free breakfast and lunch.
Many of my students come from two-parent homes in which both parents work sometimes two jobs trying to make ends meet. Some of my students come from single-parent homes. This year, half of my students speak a different language at home, and thus are second language learners. I just want to provide the best educational experiences possible for all my students.
My Project
It has been proven that learning music helps students improve in math. I would love to be able provide the opportunity for my students to do so by giving each on their own recorder. I would be able to teach them basic fingering to be able to play simple songs.
With the musical recorders that I am requesting my students would have the joy of learning to play an instrument which helps to improve in math--a win win situation.
The students will love having their own recorders and will be able to play songs for themselves as well as for others. This will be the first instrument for most of my students. Hopefully it will inspire some to continue with music.
Also I am requesting hooks to allow students to hang their backpacks up and not be hanging from their chairs which become a mobility problem when students move around.
