My Project

My students need instruments for our musical classroom as well as music books, for read alouds. They are an amazing bunch of kiddos who love music education, but just don't have the resources needed to buy instruments for the class. I picked these instruments such as the Rhythm Band Music Small Conga Hand Drum, Cactus Rainstick and books because they align with our curriculum. As you can see they can get quite expensive but thats where you come in. Please help in any capacity you see fit. The students will appreciate it so much, and so will I. Thank you so much!
