Help me give my students a hands on musical experience in the classroom

My Project

My students could use headphones, recorders, and rhythm sticks.

These music instruments would help them learn!

3rd graders start learning recorders every year and being funded by donors choose would help provide and equal learning opportunity for all my underprivileged students.

I focus on rhythm studies K-6 to make sure my students have a strong rhythmic background before moving into middle and high school. Having the plastic sticks allows my students to practice without making all the noise most instruments make. Lots of students don't have the money for headphones. These would help with our technology needs.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
