Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

My kids are musical masterminds who enjoy exploring and learning about all kinds of instruments! Boomwhackers has recently been of interest to my students. These vibrant percussion tubes aren't just instruments; they're gateways to a world of rhythm and melody that will elevate our learning experience. With your generous support, we can turn our musical dreams into reality.

These boomwhackers will expand our instrument library and elevate our music lessons through hands-on exploration of rhythm, pitch, and harmony.

These colorful tools will engage students of all abilities, fostering creativity and collaboration as they dive into the world of music-making. From composing catchy tunes to harmonizing in perfect sync, Boomwhackers will empower our students to unleash their inner musicians and discover the joy of creating music together.

What makes my students special is their boundless enthusiasm and unwavering dedication to learning. Despite any challenges they may face, they approach each day with a spirit of determination and a thirst for knowledge. With your support, we can support their love for music and help us get to boomin' with Boomwhackers! Thank you for considering my classroom!
