My students are all excited individuals ready to come to school each day and learn. Music class is a time where my students can explore their creativity through instruments, song, and dance!
In kindergarten and first grade music class, we do an activity called, "Stir Up My Soup," with our egg shakers where students make up ingredients to put in our soup as they shake their eggs.
We make sure not to much in too much "pepper" or we sneeze! We sing this as a song while we shake our eggs. The students love it and I would like to make it even more exciting this year by having students actually put their pretend ingredients in a pot while they stir up their soup! This will help promote creativity and engagement with my students-something I will always strive to do in music class! It also helps promote financial literacy because as the year goes on, we can think about how much these ingredients might cost and pretend that we have to go shopping for the ingredients!
More than half of students from low‑income households
