Accessorize Our Instruments!

Help me give my students accessories for their instruments to help with posture and proper playing position.

My Project

Our students need the accessories that go with their instruments to elevate their playing experience and encourage proper playing position. String students don't have shoulder rests to allow them to play with proper posture. Our percussionists are missing the appropriate mallets to play our keyboard instruments. Our keyboards are lacking stands and stools to allow students to play with good hand position.

Students will use these accessories to elevate their playing experience and ensure good posture habits as they develop into advanced musicians.

Each of these accessories will improve the quality of our students playing experience by helping them be more successful.

Ms. Hoover
Grades 6-8
