Now the room is focused, and every student can hear the instruments, tempo, and mood of their piece and describe it in musical terms. This is a core part of our music standards.\r\n\r\nMy students love the freedom to choose, whether that's Baroque, jazz, or a film score.

Our students in the music program work diligently to improve not only as musicians, but more importantly as members of their soceity. In a fast paced world, it is often difficult for students to understand that mastery is often not earned quickly. Thankfully, through providing the students with the necessary materials such as reeds, they are able to reach mastery at a faster pace than they would have with old or broken reeds.\r\n\r\nWe appreciate you taking the time to read the project and more imprtantly select ours.

Students have already been hands on with the Chomp Saw. The excitement on their faces when we got it delivered and opened it up for the first time was amazing. The excitement and anticipation of a new tool for their use was the talk of the classroom. My students were eager to try the Chomp Saw out, many were thrilled to see a tool, they recognized from social media in the classroom. They began small with getting familiar with the product and how it works, they cut easy shapes and some even cut out \"6-7's\" to start.\r\n\r\nWe are about to begin our final project which is to build a Roller Coaster. This project comes at the end of our Forces Unit. My students will be using it to help cut their roller coaster parts and it will assist them in construction.
