Gift of Sound and Song

Help me give my students the gift of sound and song that we can hear.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Knight's classroom raised $509

My Project

Please help my students get music and a microphone to hear it with. This year my fourth grade students will be singing two large group choral songs for their move up ceremony. The first will be Go the Distance and the second Count on Me. Both of these songs are fun age appropriate and fitting for a move up ceremony. The last song You Got a Friend in Me is for a whole school performance.

Each year my entire school does some sort of large scale performance.

This year they will be singing dancing and displaying music videos they have created. It will be epic. With your help the students will have amazing recordings to sing to, awesome arrangements and a microphone that will help to ampliphy the choir. These items will help to take both performances to the next level and make the students feel like real musicians.
