My Project

At my school, my students love to use classroom instruments! In music, we use instruments to teach all kinds of concepts. Students use instruments to learn rhythms, melodies, accompany a story, create their own musical piece, play a musical game, or accompany a song. Since students have been using my classroom instruments for over 15 years, some of our instruments have broken and need to be replaced.

These new classroom instruments will replace our broken instruments and allow students to continue to enjoy learning musical concepts through playing classroom instruments!

By adding ukuleles to our classroom, we can teach students the fundamentals of music, such as rhythm, melody, and chord progression. These instruments will also help my students perform musical pieces both in the classroom and for an audience. My students always enjoy using instruments in the classroom and I hope with your generosity, we can continue using these instruments in music!
