Beat It- Class Drum Set

Help me give my students access to hand drums to beat on! And what better instrument to engage them in learning beat and rhythm!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Shields's classroom raised $633

My Project

We all know kids love a drum to beat on! And what better way to engage them in learning beat and rhythm!

Providing a class set of drums will engage all students in rhythm and beat activities.

This will create a community, or drum circle, and give all students the capability to learn simultaneously.

A side benefit is the absolute self-control students develop in holding a drum and listening to directions, awaiting the opportunity to play their drum! The excitement and learning potential is impressive.

I currently have a half-class set, so this project will fulfill my goal to complete that set and offer seating on stools for our drum circle.
