The mini steel drums have been a huge hit amongst all grade levels. When they first arrived, I had more than ten kids that weren't even in my music class ask to play them. Several high school students wanted links to purchase their own, and through Donor's choose, we were able to purchase enough for the entire elementary population. \r\n During music, we have had lots of fun learning some of the songs that were provided with the drums, and exploring our own music made with them. Whole classes of students worked together to create and play beats and songs. It has been very fulfilling to have the drums.\r\n We were also able to get some much needed recorder sleeves with your help, which may not seem like a huge impact to some, but to us, it is. We were using creative paper towel rolls for recorder holders. The sleeves are an upgrade for sure.\r\nThank you again for all of your help. You are truly appreciated. We all hope you have an empowering day.","fullyFundedDate":1774534236856,"projectUrl":"project/music-supplies-for-k-5/10166354/","projectTitle":"Music Supplies for K-5","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Kaela Kidd","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-9_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/kaeladkidd"},{"teacherId":8082497,"projectId":10166440,"letterContent":"All, in all, with your help, my students got much needed supplies to help keep them creating to their hearts' content.\r\n I want to extend my deepest gratitude to you for the help you provided our school.

The pipe cleaners are always a favorite in my art room with kids making everything from bracelets and belts to more advanced creatures and structures. \r\n My students love the wooden beads as well as the pony beads, using them on the pipe cleaners to embellish their bracelets and other works of art.
