My students Wood Conga Set, Pretuned Fiberglass Djembe, ABS Bongos Plus, Elements Mini Synthetic Djembe, these drums are for kindergarten through fifth-grade students to use while making music in class. The drums are different sizes, which will create different pitches, but all are able to be used by the students at our school. The all stand on their own, so any size student can play them without worrying about balancing the drum. All students can learn good technique with these drums and play without stress.These drums would keep my students, moving, playing, and learning! We could use these drums for a lot of different purposes: school concerts, keeping a beat during musical games, playing rhythms that we have learned, or playing them as part of an instrumental ensemble. Most of all, I want my students to have access to these awesome instruments because they're fun to play and inspire a love of learning and of music.
