These four requested Sphero Specdrums are simply rings that are placed on fingers. Using them enables students to learn how to create music with technology; specifically through color and an app. The rings read different colors- via the "keyboard" or anything with similar coloring- and play the sounds associated with that color.
With the Specdrums, my students' imaginations might be their only limitation in creating something amazing. The preprogrammed sounds include various percussion sets. However, students are also able to trade drums for a variety of other sound effects. These include a cappella singing, musical clips, orchestra instruments, varieties of pianos and guitar, or their voices. Students will get hands-on experimentation with creating a multi-sound musical piece.
Specdrums can be coded to play a symphony of the students own creation. They then play the score through color; the colors of the hallway, a specific book, their classroom or clothing. Imagine the variety and creativity of students pieces. Specdrums are a perfect blend of technology and music.
