Help me give my students all of the little things that I usually purchase with my funds, from sheet protectors and reeds to new band method books and picture books to read to my younger students.

My Project
My students have weathered a pandemic and now are so excited to play instruments and learn about music again. I have 10 clarinet players this year and they do not have the funds to purchase their own reeds, so I supply reeds all the time. These reeds will really help! The beginning band books will help my 25 band students learn how to play without having to learn how to read music at first. The desk organizer will help me to keep all of the music on my desk more orderly and the sheet protectors will be given to students when I hand out individual sheet music. I chose each picture book to use with specific lessons with my kindergarten, 1st and 2nd graders. I always choose a picture book to read/sing with my younger students at the end of every lesson and these will be a great addition to my classroom library.
With these new books, I will be able to enrich my music lessons with my youngest students and encourage their love of reading at an early age.
I am determined to break down as many barriers to being a musician as I can for my students. I hope that you can support me in this effort!
