Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

Please help me get some new bongos for my students to play during Music class. In my Orff Music class, we play instruments almost every class period. I like to give the students more options to choose from.

These new bongos will be perfect for my students to develop their musical skills and creativity.

Having these instruments would allow more students to play at once. Bongos are used in many of the pieces we perform. Having more bongos for students will allow them to broaden their experiences in the music class.
