My Students

As a teacher in a low-income/high poverty school district, my students are faced with several challenges both in and out of the classroom. Despite the many challenges they face, I am looking to provide my students with creative and meaningful learning experiences. I teach 3rd through 5th-grade music

My students are the best students and are striving to learn new and different concepts every day.

Music is a way for them to use multiple parts of their brain that may not be stimulated otherwise.

The students in my music classes inspire me daily to be the best teacher I can be. They come to class ready to sing, play, and participate in whatever activity I have planned.

For many students, this is their first introduction to music. The students are all so vastly different, and each one is inspiring in his or her own way. Every day these kids teach me something new, and it is amazing to see!

My Project

My students will be so excited to learn to code using the Dash and Dot Wonder Pack. Most of them do not have access to technology at home and need to learn how to use it effectively in order to be prepared for life in the 21st century.

Imagine the excitement students would feel, working side by side learning to code a robot to play music!

As they learn the skills and lessons of coding, students will also be building their collaboration skills and their ability to persevere to problem solve. Teamwork and computer programming skills are necessities for the 21st century workforce.

This kit comes with a xylophone so that the students will be able to create their own music and have the robot play it for them. This brings music from the paper to the modern technological world.
