The singing and rhythm/percussion group at our school is off to a great start. The photos for this project is artwork that the students created to represent our music group. While singers use their voice as their instrument, our percussionists are limited in their instrument selection. Bringing more diverse percussion selections will enhance the learning experience of music to our participating students. Many of our students who are currently using the limited instruments we have are non-verbal and can use sound and rhythm as their main form of communication. For example, the Wah Wah tube is a ground instrument where students can feel the vibrations as they play. Additionally, students learn structure, working in groups, and overall gaining a tool for self-regulation of emotions.
