This teacher needs your help!

Help me give my students the percussion instruments that we need to create music from around the world, and SD cards to store our performances for review.

My Project

For this project, I am looking for a lot of instruments in the percussion family that we currently don't have. A lot of these are small-dollar items that we could purchase with school funds, but those are often needed for bigger items like woodwind and brass instruments (or larger percussion instruments). All of these instruments hail from cultures around the world, expanding our ability to make different styles of music. Also, we need some SD cards to go with our recording devices from a previous project, and they will also be used for recording and storing performances.
