Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

Our music class is very interactive, as we learn a variety of musical instruments and have fun with movement. I think it would be beneficial for the children to explore with pitched bells, as we continue learning about pitch. Piano labels will be helpful for our 5th graders, as they are working to learn basic piano skills. The headphones are great for use as children play keyboard. This way, they can focus on learning their pieces. My goal is to provide a full musical experience for each and every student that comes to my music class.
