My Project
For many young students, returning to the dynamics of the classroom environment and learning to once again work with others was a unique challenge. The music classroom presented its own challenges as a place where senseful awareness, sharing, and collaboration are essential to provide meaningful musical experiences. The instruments that I have requested will help enrich classroom musical experiences through tonal variety, a diversity of tactile techniques, sharing instruments, developing senseful awareness, and learned collaborative strategies. Each instrumental element is a unique contribution to the array of sounds that make up a music ensemble.
