K-5 general plan advice

Hi all, just got an offer I plan on accepting for a k-5 spot. It’s general music, and the previous teacher had a bunch of extra instrumental opportunities including but not limited to recorder, ukulele, guitar, bucket drumming, and drum line

So my thought is to have k-3 be actual general music, and then 4/5 transition into more instrumental (while also doing vocal activities)

It’s my first year and I planned on relying a good bit on MusicPlayOnline, and saw their content was better suited to K-3, so that also contributed to the idea.

Anyone have experience doing something similar or opposition to the idea?

First job offer, it’s low pay, would require a move to a new area, and looks to be a LOT of work (PreK-8th)

I’m fresh out of my masters after going straight into grad school after my music ed bachelors. I’ve heard masters with no teaching experience aren’t exactly desirable to hire, so question stands:

Should I take it or keep applying
