Maracas and Shakers and Wind Chimes, Oh My!

Help me give my students a well-stocked percussion section. Wind chimes, maracas, and shakers are essential percussion accessories; we need these instruments to have a successful spring concert!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Fiery's classroom raised $200

My Project

Our band program is in a rebuilding phase, not just with students but with instruments too! The students are working hard to grow their skill set and taking pride in themselves and their band. We work every day to improve our sight reading skills, helping us learn our music more quickly. Now it is time to focus our efforts on proper equipment.

Our band is small but mighty and we need essential percussion instruments to make our songs pop!

Every percussionist loves to receive a new song to see what cool accessories they get to perform on, so having the instruments on hand is a must! Maracas, shakers, and wind chimes are needed for our spring concert music.

Right now we are having to fix broken instruments in order to perform our music with proper instrumentation. The students deserve proper working instruments so their pride can continue to soar! I can't wait to see their faces light up when they see the new shiny instruments and the even bigger smiles on their faces when they get to play the new instruments.
