Hello! I am Laura Brown, one of the music teachers here at Walker Station Elementary! This is my sixth year teaching music at Walker Station and my 11th school year within Fort Bend ISD. 

I love teaching your children to sing, say, dance, and play in a way that helps them be TUNEful, BEATful, and ARTful. In music class, we sing, play instruments, create (compose) music, listen to different genres and music from various cultures, and participate in grade level performances. 

On the personal front, I am married to a mechanical engineer. I have a 5 year old daughter & a 2 1/2 year old son. I love my family very much! When I'm not interacting with children at school, I love to cook and bake, travel with my family, and attend music concerts and performances. I have a music education degree from Sam Houston State University where I studied voice (classical singing and opera). I recently finished my Orff-Schulwerk certification, where I learned an approach based on movement & instrument play. That experience helped me bring valuable insight into how to help students as they begin to feel and discover music! I am also passionate about lifelong learning. I am always seeking opportunities to learn more! I am hoping to begin my Masters Degree within the next few years, also in Music Education.

I am so excited to start a new journey of music-making with your students this year!! If you want to know what is happening in music class this year at WSE, be sure to follow me on Twitter @wsemusic. A lot of details about what your students are learning in music will be mentioned there. We will also be launching a Facebook page soon with other updates. :)

To contact me: I am always available by email (laura.brown@fortbendisd.com), but only respond on off-periods and only during the work week. I like to spend my home time with my family, but will always respond when I am back at school again. Never hesitate to reach out!
