With our drums and ukuleles, students have gained a better understanding of performance. It has been a positive influence that they have access to instruments everyday! When we work on rhythm it is wonderful to be able to put them into practice. \r\nThese tools have empowered my students to have positive attitudes towards learning music! That is priceless in the world we live in today. We used the instruments in our Christmas performance and we use them in class.\r\n\r\nAgain, thank you for your donation. Our children's faces lit up when the instruments arrived! One of my 7th graders even helped me put the drum set together. They beg me everyday to play them. We thank you that our students are starting to see an abundance in music at our school, even though that may not have been the case for them previously.\"","fullyFundedDate":1731206243563,"projectUrl":"project/ready-to-perform-with-real-instruments/8927866/","projectTitle":"Ready to Perform with Real Instruments","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. MiChele Green","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp1516472_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1534376318815","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/michele-green"},{"teacherId":1516472,"projectId":8881811,"letterContent":"Thank you for the contribution to our music class at Armorel Schools!

Now we are completing these and the students are growing in piano each week. \r\n\r\nAt Christmas we used our scarves in a \"Christmas Around the World Show\". It was a huge hit!
