Help me give my students more instruments to play in class. I am interested in expanding my current collection of resonator bells so that each student in my class will have their own set to use during lessons.

My Project
I am planning to introduce a new curriculum in my classroom aimed at helping students learn to read and play music at an earlier age. This curriculum focuses on playing colored desk bells and resonator bells. Currently, I have 7 sets of resonator bells and 4 complete sets of desk bells, but I would like to expand my inventory so that each student can have their own set during lessons.
These bells will be instrumental in teaching my K-2 students how to play and read music, while also providing my 3-4 students an opportunity to review music notation and prepare for instruments like recorders and ukuleles.
I believe that by using these bells to start music reading earlier, we can establish a strong foundation that will ultimately benefit our choir and band programs at the junior high and high school levels.
