Teaching bucket drumming with 50 high schoolers in 1 class can get very loud and intense, so mutes would be greatly appreciated for these poor ears. Many of these students have not had much music education prior to my class, so I am trying to make the class more motivating and exciting for all these students by introducing to them instruments like piano, ukulele, guitar, and percussion.
Bucket drumming is the easiest route for learning rhythms and percussion in a fun way, and all of the 50 students in each of our music classes could benefit from these mutes.
Please consider donating to our 2nd year music program that we had to build from the bottom up. We appreciate your assistance in advance.
More than half of students from low‑income households
