“I loved going [to RoMP] because I learned about music like pitch, rhythm, tempo, melody, steady beat and about dynamics. I am now confident enough to perform in front of many people. I learned about other cultures and their history. I learned many songs and how people make some instruments.”
“I enjoyed playing recorders because I now know that I can do anything I want to do if I set my mind to it which is called ‘Growth Mindset.’ When I get called on it makes me happy because I can show others, and I feel comfortable because I have supportive classmates and teachers!”
