Your support has made a meaningful impact on our students learning experience. Because of your kindness, students now have the opportunity to explore music in a hands-on and engaging way. The resonator bells have helped them learn how to read music while connecting notes to color, numbers and the musical alphabet. These visual tactile elements make abstract musical concepts easier for students to understand and remember. Most importantly, the students love the resonator bells! They are so excited to participate and proud when they experience success and make connections while playing music.","fullyFundedDate":1757957775793,"projectUrl":"project/solfege-extravaganza/9670980/","projectTitle":"Solfege Extravaganza","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. Abelson","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp1053753_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1477959731828","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/1053753"},{"teacherId":9495177,"projectId":8455762,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for the game on uniforms. I can not begin to describe what an amazing impact this had had on my students and my classes as a whole. These uniforms have allowed me to place students in color coded groups, as well as teams. This is very impactful with the lower level grades K-2 because its an opportunity for me to teach them their primary colors. It also awesome for the upper elementary grade levels because I can have scrimmages and they also like the fact that the tank tops are numbered. Overall this has been a positive addition to our school.
