My school has a wonderful incentive program to help keep students motivated throughout the year. Students with high grades in all classes are offered a chance to participate in many different club opportunities. Music is such an integral part of a middle school student's life. By offering fun and relevant choices to middle school students the motivation level of these students rises. My hope is that Bucket Drumming will not only increase my students desire to do well in their academic classes, but will also increase their love of music. Once students are in the bucket drumming club time they will learn basic rhythm skills and perform for each other. They will not have to learn the same skills as some other musicians because this will just be an introduction to performing on drums. Offering Bucket Drumming will be an exciting opportunity to reach out to many students who may not otherwise have the opportunity to learn music in school.
