Because of your donation, my students can now easily access instruments from their chairs quickly and efficiently, allowing them to, in turn, have more opportunities to play fun rhythm instruments along with the songs that we do in class. They were very excited to see the new things under their chairs and couldn't wait to get started with playing instruments. It's definitely one of their favorite things to do and makes performing to the music much more engaging, especially for those who don't enjoy just simply singing. \r\n\r\nWe look forward to a school year of even more opportunities to play even more types of rhythm instruments as the year goes on since there is now an easy play to quickly access and store them, from triangles to rhythm sticks to maracas.
