My Students

MUSIC!! WOW remember when there was music in schools? Or maybe you had music in your school? Well California has just cut almost every last penny of music in our system. I am a kindergarten teacher who is also a musician. I just put out a kids CD, and perform with my students on a regular basis.

We are a bunch of enthusiastic beautiful kindergarteners in a high poverty school.

We do not have many resources at our school, no PTA, no real parent involvement, but we are still one of the best classes in the whole wide world. Our learning never stops and we LOVE music. Our teacher is teaching us so many things through music and songs pertaining to reading and math. Our teacher is a guitar player and fiddle player. She takes us out and we sing for art festivals, and performances at school. She also teaches guitar at school to students and teachers alike.

My Project

Our teacher is requesting a forever home for a guitar she can use in the classroom everyday and use it when we perform live ( acoustic/electric). As you can see in the picture she has a very old guitar that cannot play electric and has a bent guitar neck. She is sad she will not be able to purchase a new one anytime soon, but this guitar brings so much happiness to the whole school as she leads sing along and inspires students and teachers to play the ...GUITAR. Will you please help us help her spread the love of music no matter how small, knowing that this guitar will be a muse for children to come, and it is a vital part of our learning. It is a lot, we know, but this guitar sings to our souls, brings smiles to our faces and makes us happy when we are sad.

This guitar will be used for many students to come.

It is a guitar that will be used with love, and inspire many children to want to be successful in music and learn things like the days of the week, vowels, how to count, being proud of yourself no matter what color you are, and music. Music is so important, that our teacher who also teaches us the curriculum, is our only music teacher. Thank you for your kind donation and bringing music to our ears.
