My Project

Please help me get my students some drums to play during music time. We have several shaker things for them to use, but not any drums. These will allow them to experience different types of musical instruments.

The children enjoy expressing themselves with instruments.

We will use them to learn different patterns and beats, as well as to just have fun with.

We also could use some more board books for the younger children to get their hands on explore. It is so important to get books into children's hands as early as possible to create a love for reading.
