Music is truly a way to touch the heart - it is a universal language! I have the privilege of getting to teach music to early learners who are just embarking on their musical experiences. I want to provide them as many opportunities as possible to continue to develop a love for music that will carry on for years to come. Being able to play a "real" instrument successfully is something that will undoubtedly spur them on to bigger and better things. As of right now, my students have access to unpitched percussion instruments (rhythm stick, triangles, woodblocks, etc.) that they LOVE to play. I would love to expand their experiences to include a pitched instrument so that they could begin to recognize that music has endless possibilities. With these ukuleles, my students will have an opportunity to put their hands on their own instrument rather than having to always wait for a turn. This will promote whole class engagement and help them progress much more quickly than they would if they were working in rotations. We do several performances a year at my school and I can't wait for the kids to get on the stage in front of parents, friends, family and the community to show what kids are capable of doing when they have the resources available to help them shine! Thank you in advance for helping to make this dream a reality!
