Our students with special needs especially enjoyed practicing steady beats using the bouncing balls. And the parachute has been a big hit! We use it to explore tempo, dynamics, steady beat, and rhythm. We also learn about musical form by dancing with it. The stretchy band is perfect for our youngest learners as they explore rhythm, loud and soft, and fast and slow.\r\n\r\nAll of the equipment we received through this project has enriched our students' musical experiences—and it's all thanks to you, our donors. We appreciate your kindness and generosity more than words can express.","fullyFundedDate":1758821966758,"projectUrl":"project/music-in-action/9714524/","projectTitle":"Music in Action","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Wong","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-5_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9037969"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_134320","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":null,"numTeachers":null,"percentFrplEligible":null,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":18,"percentWhite":45,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":30,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":false,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Not specified","studentTeacherRatio":null,"demographicsDataSource":"MDR District Record","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"UNCLASSIFIED","ncesMetroType":null},"inStateSupporters":90.3,"schoolId":134320,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Swift Creek Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Swift Creek Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/north-carolina/johnston-county-public-school-district/swift-creek-elementary-school/134320"}
