Learning the Piano-5th Grade

The fifth graders of Memorial School are helping each other to learn how to
play the piano keyboard.  Each classroom of fifth graders has a group of
students who take private piano lessons outside of school.  Their skills are
being put to good use as they serve as "teachers" to their classmates.  Each
teacher has a studio of students who get a 10 - 15 minute private lesson
during each music class.  Each teacher receives payment to their personal
5th grade checkbook at the end of class.  Ask your students what they have
learned either as a piano student or teacher!
This technology is possible through the use of the MAC laptops with Garage
Band, and the compatible Music Audio Keystation 49e (provided by a previous
grant from Spaulding).
