Help me give my students free music choices with books and CD players for individual in-class use, and a nice boombox for whole-class use that has more options for music play and does not scratch disks.

My Project
I teach music and my students LOVE Celebration time, our free choice time. They get to play music, read about it, listen to it, color while they listen, dance, and play music games. Our class only had 2 CD players and one recently died (the children's free choice one) and the other teacher one that is used for dance time scratches our most used and favorite CDs.
I would love to have multiple CD players for children to share and use to experience music in their own way.
I also want the books for those students that love learning, but don't feel they have good music skills. These books will be a fun way to explain music concepts to them while using a tool they are comfortable with (stories). I also plan to read the books with music in the background and record them so the younger children can have a read-along book as well.
I am excited to see how the children will use these tools. I will teach them to respect our tools and instruments so they will last for years to come. I teach 19 different classes of students K-2 and these materials would be extremely well-loved! Thank you.
More than half of students from low‑income households
