We are a brand new title 1 school in Las Vegas with no classroom instruments for students. These glockenspiels are fantastic melodic instruments because they are very easy to learn and interact with. We will be using these in a number of different ways including performing and creating songs on a frequent basis. These will help students learn how to read music and how to play as part of an ensemble. Music is far more exciting with an instrument in hand! These students will be so engaged with each song that we play on these beautiful instruments and will have an opportunity to teach one another. Without these glockenspiels, the students will be developmentally behind when it comes to playing an instrument.
