We have a very unique class offered at our school "Instrumental Ensemble." Sounds fancy, but it's really just kids putting together their own bands and making their own music with teacher guidance of course! In this class they are learning to play music, "rock band style." They are arranging and writing songs, but one of my favorite parts is that they are learning to work together, doing a great amount of peer teaching and helping each other to be successful. As if playing music wasn't reward enough, the social elements the kids learn are life skills that they can take with them forever! Learning to play music can be life changing for some students- that's why we need your help getting instruments into their hands. Some kids are new to playing music and they need to have an outlet to get started. It's easy to get an instrument and some music lessons if you come from an affluent family, but not all my kids are that fortunate. That's why they need your help. The Bass guitar, bass amp, Cajon and ukulele will be used for students that do not have the means of getting their own instruments. The Bass guitar, bass amp, Cajon and ukulele will help get us started. Thanks so much for your help!
