Help me give my students basic classroom supplies for our music classes. We need soprano recorders, recorder method books and mallets to enhance our music skills in a hands-on way.

My Students
My students attend a tough, inner city school where 98% of the population receives free lunch, and 75% of their families receive AFDC assistance. Basic supplies for our music classroom include mallets, recorders and books. Our current supplies have become worn from use and need to be replaced and updated.
My students need basic materials for our music classroom so they can learn to read and play music.
These materials will enable my students to learn in a hands-on way that will provide a longer lasting and deeper understanding of music.
My Project
My students will use the recorders requested to learn the basics of wind instrument playing which will inspire them to move on to woodwind or brass instrument playing in band. My students need mallets to play on xylophones and other barred percussion instruments in our classroom as they create and perform. My students need books to learn basic theory and note reading that will enable them to become better musicians.
The requested items in this project are all basic materials needed for a robust learning experience in an elementary music classroom.
My students are excited about showing what they know and these materials will enable them to do so.
