For 5th Grade Band you will need your instrument, "Traditions of Excellence" book 1 and a pencil. Please let me know if you have any questions. If you are playing percussion you will need a percussion kit with a practice pad, drumsticks, a metal glock (xylo), mallets, and a stand. (Just look on Amazon at percussion kit. You can also get them at any music store like Booth Brothers or Summerhays and even pawn shops.)
