My Students

I teach wonderful students in an elementary school. In music class we cannot play recorders right now.

The students love music and playing instruments.

My students are always ready to learn in innovative ways! They will be very grateful for this opportunity!

My Project

Students will have fun by learning music in a new way. They will gain many valuable skills that will continue to help them as they grow as people and musicians!

Playing an instrument is very fun and students get a great sense of accomplishment when they learn how to do it well!

Students will learn how to accompany themselves while singing and also how to play fun songs that they enjoy.

This instrument has the potential to inspire my students to work hard and practice in order to be successful!
