My students need a harp because it is the most magical, inspiring instrument! I get more requests to see, touch, and play a "REAL" harp than any other instrument. It would be a dream come true!

My Students
My elementary music students are talented, excited, and motivated by the arts! They love music, art, and drama, and are particularly excited by the new music room and art room at our school. We have a huge student body with approximately 1,200 kids. I teach students in PreK through grade 5, general education students, language learners, and many special education students. Families at our school come from many countries, including Bangladesh, Dominican Republic, Ghana, Mexico, China, India, and more... each individual student has something special to offer as far as culture and background. It is pretty amazing!
My Project
My students are very inquisitive when it comes to instrument families and learning about different types of instruments. We have some instruments in our classroom, mainly small percussion instruments that are very useful, but fairly common. When we get to the string family, the most commonly requested instrument is the harp! We are able to listen to harp music, but students want more than that! Students want to hear, see, touch, play, experience what a "REAL" harp would be like. It is magical to them, and would be such a great addition to our school music room. I cannot imagine the excitement and inspiration that would come along with this project getting funded.
