Ukuleles Make Future Stars

My Students

My students are energetic and enthusiastic. They are learning through our mindset lessons and from our teachers that they can be anything they want with some hard work, kindness, passion for what they love to do, accountability and embracing every moment.

We encourage them to believe they can be anything they set their minds to!

We have conversations with them and teach them how to contribute to their community! We believe they can accomplish great things and we are their biggest fans!

My Project

My 5th grade students struggle with finding their voice. They are so bogged down by school work and tests that they have a hard time letting loose and having fun. With these ukuleles we can learn relevant songs that they listen to on the radio, along with some inspirational songs.

Music can be inspiration and help mold our everyday moods.

I want to encourage my students to listen to and learn to play music that inspire them and make them happy. The more they listen to this music the more it will be ingrained in their minds.

They will also practice fine motor skills that not many students practice anymore. They can find a passion for music that can help them get scholarships into college.
