Boom! Boom! Pow!
Funded Aug 27, 2018Thank you so much for your generosity. The expression on my kinder students' faces when I first brought out the instruments was priceless! Whereas before I only had a handful of instruments to hand out, now every single child is fortunate enough to be able to play an instrument at the same time. They no longer have to wait impatiently as other children make music.
So far my students have used the instruments to explore the sounds each different instrument makes. We have used them to represent the characters in different stories that we have read. They've used them to count beats in math lessons. But more than anything they have learned to love making music. With the end of the school year approaching we are planning on using the instruments in our culmination ceremony for the parents. I can not wait to see the parents' faces as they see their children perform using the instruments you have all generously contributed to purchasing for them. You have inspired a classroom of future musicians, mathematicians, writers, and countless other careers. Muchas gracias from all of my beautiful students!”
With gratitude,
Mrs. Vela
