Instruments of the World

Help me give my students a new understanding of instruments in the world. With the addition of the Kalimba, we'll be able to explore a better idea of what other music is out there.

My Project

Teaching and learning music online was one of the most difficult things these kids accomplished last year. With the addition of the new instruments, we would be able to explore new venues of music that they had no idea about. They would able to touch a physical instrument and learn a new craft that many schools and districts normally don't do.

With your help, each of the students from kindergarten all the way up to 8th grade, will be able to experience these new instruments.

These instruments can be taught to all grade levels, so incorporating this into our curriculum will be fantastic.
