Xylophones, metallophones, and glockenspiels – these instruments are perfectly tailored to engage budding musicians, specifically in grades K-2, and are completely adjustable for each student. These Orff instruments are already being successfully implemented; this grant literally doubles Meadowbrook’s inventory to allow every student in class to play at once rather than in shifts. Students receive maximum hands-on instruction in rhythm, which has a well-documented correlation with mathematics, and each entire class can now play together in one magnificent band.
