Our music program in our school is fairly new and relatively small. I'm hoping to change that for our students this year and in the coming years. Most of our instruments are broken hand-me-downs or there isn't enough to teach a lesson properly. I am teaching students to read and play sheet music, strengthening their reading and deductive reasoning skills while allowing them to use higher-order thinking in a creative setting. These pianos and xylophones will play a vital role in strengthening our music education for students while giving them an opportunity to explore various instruments. Providing the students with sufficient materials will ensure they are given a true opportunity to learn in a general music education setting. I aim to make learning fun and memorable for my kiddos!
