Boomwhackers will give our urban students the chance to express emotion in a healthy and purely musical way. Boomwhackers are a fun way to keep students engaged and actively moving around. Learning music teaches students more about who they are and how to experience respond to the world in which they live. Boomwhackers help with social-emotional regulation while teaching important and foundational music skills. These instruments are used in music classrooms around the world. My K-4 students will love using these in general music, and my 5-8 choir students might use them to accompany themselves singing. The Boomwhackers will be used to play music in a way that is easy for everyone to participate. Students can be successful in their very first music class with boomwhackers. The Octavator Caps helps transpose the boomwhacker an octave. These caps essentially turn each boomwhacker into a second boomwhacker!
