Ms. Linda from Bellerose, NY is requesting musical instruments through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Music Makes the World

Help me give my students additional musical instruments to enhance instruction in the classroom.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Linda's classroom raised $1,000

This project is fully funded

My Project

These instruments will allow my students to have access to various types of musical sounds. In my school we currently have a limited number of each of these instruments. This will allow the whole class access to the same instrument at the same time rather than sharing. I teach students with disabilities in a variety of different ratios and ages (K-8).

My goal for this is to help transition my younger students into performance based ensembles.

By having a full set of each instrument students will start to develop a sense of community and ownership over their specific instrument.

Ms. Linda PS993 @ PS208 Grades PreK-2
