Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

We are very excited to have started our brand new Modern Band program. We have three full classes of students enrolled this year for our band, where students will perform on guitars, basses, keyboards, ukuleles, and vocals. All of these instruments have accessories which can enhance the learning experience of the students.

The accessories listed in this project are all of the needed materials to successfully operate our instruments in our Modern Band class.

The adjustable keyboard stands will allow the students to perform at the appropriate height for their age and size. Picks, tuners and cables will help supplement proper tuning and playing techniques for our growing musician on our ukuleles, guitars and basses. And the drum sticks will be used by our new and eager drummers will make good use of the drum sticks. As we begin our journey into making music, these are some of the small things that make a difference.
