My Project

In this project you will find that I have requested several bulk sets of tambourines for my new set of elementary scholars. I also ask for music themed stickers to provide children for incentives.

It can get tricky to pull some children into the less exciting lessons, so the stickers will be used to engage and excite.

I also have some fidgety students who distract and disrupt lessons throughout the day, so I am giving the pop-its a try for those students, to see if this will help. I am optimistic about the children getting their hands on the tambourines.
