My Project

I am expanding my general music class this coming school year to include beginning guitar. We have a set of classroom guitars, but are in need of a set of lesson books.

The guitar method books from Hal Leonard will help tremendously with instruction using the classroom set of guitars.

Many students have never experienced playing a guitar or having an opportunity to learn one outside of a school setting. Having a classroom set of method books available for instructional use will open an opportunity to expose students in a rural area to a new instrument and to future possibilities.
