My Project

Students spend a lot of there day sitting in their regular classes. In Music class most of the Orff or barred instruments are located on the floor requiring students to sit once again.

Having barred instruments at a standing height allows students to play the instruments with improved posture and mallet position.

With improvements in these areas students will be able to play their instrument better allowing them to have even more fun creating music.

Having barred instruments on stands helps with safety as students will not be tempted to walk over them. Students love coming to Music class and love even more playing on the instruments.
