My Project

My students come to class excited and eager to learn about Music, and they get especially excited any time they get to play instruments! We are requesting drum sticks to be used to play five gallon buckets as drums. These can be used for practicing rhythm reading, studying general music concepts, developing coordination, and musicianship skills.

By donating to this project, you will help students know what it is like to read and play music as an ensemble.

I appreciate your help in giving my students this opportunity to play instruments!
