Help me give my students a robust music education! Maracas are a great instrument to get the students to keep the beat while practicing those motor skills!
The students at H.S.G. have the most potential for greatness, and having an outlet for that in music is one of the best ways to enhance and nurture their education. My first goal for this program would be to fit the classroom with enough instruments for a full class and to eventually get a group together to play for events and fundraising purposes for the school. To do this, our music classroom needs many things that are lacking, which are in most music classrooms. One thing in particular, is having enough Orff instruments for a whole class of 3rd, 4th or 5th graders. Currently, we only have a total of 8 for a whole class. I would also like to remedy the seating situation in the class for the younger students. They have a carpet, but for the bigger classes, there is not enough room to sit on the edge to implement the kinds of activities effective for music instruction. My goal is to fill in missing instruments, repair old ones and to get students playing music!
