My Project

Our students are eager to make music and play instruments. The walk into the music room with smiles and are always ready for what I have for them. We do not have enough drums for a class to drum all together. We currently drum in groups and take turns. They are very patient during this process because that is all they have ever known but I know they could be making so much more music without the waiting. Having an entire class drumming together is such a unique sound and I cannot wait for my students to experience it.
