I am the lucky teacher of 23 amazing, smart, fun, energetic, artistic, creative, and amusing third graders. We live in a small, rural community. Our school has a diverse culture. Included in our boundary is a Native American reservation from which a good part of our student body comes.
Our students all qualify for free breakfast and lunch.
Even though our cultures and economic situations are varied, our school is a welcoming place of learning, working together, and providing the best for our children.
My Project
Music can have a calming influence on young children. I love the relaxing sound of a soft rainstick, or the soft melody of the xylophone. A slow rhythmic roll on the drums can help students to relax. Calming music played through a light speaker can also bring a sense of security and peace. Through these musical instruments I hope to be able to bring this type of atmosphere into my classroom, especially before a big test, or at the end of a stressful day. Music can help transport us to different places and can help set the mood for an activity or event. I love music and how it helps us to generate all types of energy!
