My students are between the ages of 4 and 5 years old and are learning how to be in a classroom environment. Most of my students have not ever held a musical instrument, although they may have been exposed to music through songs and videos. My goal as a Teacher is to expand their knowledge about the world around them through hands on experiences. Then use of instruments such as these are vital to their little minds getting to see how an instruments works by touching and exploring without worry that it is something they could break. As you can see through the photos, my students were so excited to try out each one and to learn what that instrument could do. Thank you for helping me to change lives one student and one class at a time!
