My Project

My students didn't have a music teacher for two years before I accepted the position at my school. Since I started last year, their music knowledge has grown by leaps and bounds. They love playing any kind of instrument they can, dancing, and singing.

With the fiftieth birthday of my school happening this year, there is a need to cycle out some of our older damaged classroom instruments for nice new ones!

Many instruments I either do not have or don't have enough for even one row of students (5 students) to play. I use classroom percussion instruments for accompanying songs, rhythm reading, improvising sounds to stories, and for music centers. It would be helpful to have enough for at least each row to have the same instrument. With your help, my school's classroom instruments could get a major upgrade!
