I was able to find another perfectly sized storage shelf for sale in my community, so I purchased it for my room, and we could not love the new organization more. My students have said it is so much easier to find things when I ask them to go grab an instrument. They are so amazed that strangers would help us out in such a beautiful way, and it inspires them to help others when they can, too. \r\n\r\nThe new xylophone has already been played by 3rd and 5th grades, and it is such a beautiful addition to our Orff instrument ensemble. Today, 3rd graders used them to work through the process of playing a new song in 3 parts, from clapping a rhythm, to reading the letter names of notes, to practicing, to finally playing beautiful music together!","fullyFundedDate":1752586240603,"projectUrl":"project/organize-our-orff-instruments/9335116/","projectTitle":"Organize Our Orff Instruments!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Beekman","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp598768_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1532391731321","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/msprather"},{"teacherId":10024845,"projectId":9331210,"letterContent":"Thank You for Helping the First Grade Flamingos Get Organized!\r\nOn behalf of the First Grade Flamingos at J.B.
