Any Guitar Stuff Out There?

I have been teaching guitar class to a few students here, and a resource wishlist has been forming in my mind. Here are some things that we could use. If you have any ideas, let me know!

-- Spanish praise songs with chords
-- Information on basic music theory in English and Spanish (especially chord formation, intervals, etc)
-- Making sense of the difference between do-re-mi and C-D-E systemsj
-- Guitar strings. We have two steel string acoustics here, and the locally bought strings break easily.
-- Guitar picks, capos, straps, stands, etc. Don't need a lot, but a couple would be nice.
-- More guitars or ideas on how to make practice fretboards. We only have two guitars here at the school, and most of the students have to go to a church to practice at home.
-- Websites, books, software, video/audio -- I think I could make use of almost any of this.
-- There are also piano and chorus classes going on at the same time, so resources for these classes are also welcome.

It is exciting to be working with kids who have a lot of talent and potential but haven't had the opportunity to develop these talents -- especially since many of my students struggle academically. This is a great chance for them to really enjoy learning and use different parts of their brains.
