My Project

Last year, I was able to buy 10 new Casio keyboards for my music room. If I can get two more, I will have enough for every pair of students to play! With classes of 24, it will be useful to only have groups of two to share.

My students are so excited to get started learning to play the piano!

We have been practicing locating the notes with my boom cards and charts and now we are ready to put our hands on the keys. These extra two keyboards will ensure that we all get a turn!
