An offering for the families and infant children of Room 2 from Resident Teacher Emily
While still in school, the children and teachers of Room 2 had been investigating sound. While at home, this investigation continued through the variety of offerings from the infant teachers. Resident Teacher Emily decided to use some random materials in her house to create "The One Emily Band."
