Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

Having Percussion Rain Forest Tubano drums and Konga Drums in an elementary music classroom offers several benefits

These drums provide tactile and auditory stimulation, which can captivate young learners' attention and keep them engaged in music lessons.

Drums are excellent tools for teaching rhythm. By playing these drums, students can learn about beat, tempo, and timing in a hands-on and interactive way.

Drumming encourages creativity and self-expression. Students can experiment with different rhythms and patterns,

Many types of drums have cultural significance. Introducing students to instruments like the Tubano and Konga drums can provide opportunities for cultural exploration and appreciation.

Having Percussion Rain Forest Tubano drums and Konga Drums in an elementary music classroom enriches the learning experience, promotes musical development, and fosters a love for music in young learners.
