Push Play Sing is an Adaptive Music Program designed to help students to make progress on their IEP goals through engaging and dynamic hands-on music enrichment activities.
Our goal is to create a joyful and safe space where students can experience success, build relationships, and express themselves in ways that might not be accessible in traditional classroom environments.
“What impressed me most was how quickly the artists built trust and connection with our students while still keeping the experience engaging, calm, and joyful. They were incredibly adaptable, patient, and genuinely invested in making every student feel included and successful.”
“I was most impressed by the artists’ flexibility and calm, supportive presence. They were highly responsive to student needs, adapted in the moment, and created a welcoming environment where all students felt comfortable, successful, and valued.”
“The program had strong connections to both arts and social-emotional learning standards. I especially appreciated the focus on communication, self-expression, listening, movement, rhythm, and social interaction skills. The experience also supported many of our students’ individual goals related to engagement, emotional regulation, participation, and peer interaction in a meaningful and accessible way.”
“Push, Play, Sing connects to the curriculum by reinforcing core skills such as communication, listening, following routines, turn-taking, and collaboration. Through music and movement, students practice cause and effect, patterns, and expressive language in ways that align with IEP goals and support access to the Extended Content Standards.”
“This is the first experience I have had for students within the Extended Content Standards with intense needs. Often, these students are excluded from activities due to their inability to engage. I am very proud that we held such an activity in our space.”
