My Project

With the large keyboard donators purchased for my classroom last year, I see tremendous interest in learning the keyboard themselves!

They will be thrilled to take keyboard lessons from me and this will be a lifelong skill they will enjoy!

These small instruments will not present a storage issue, and are even in our school colors! They come with a microphone so they can practice singing as well! Teaching at a Title One school I do not have a music budget to make these kinds of purchases, and many of my families love to help out on these projects!
