My Project

My student's favorite part of general music is the rhythm unit! In previous years, we've banged on buckets and had a blast, but recently, our classroom location has changed and has created noise contraints- which has left us with only the option of body percussion.

These drum pads will give the kids of my school an opportunity to not only practice their rhythm patterns, notation, and performance, but will also give them the chance to learn real drumming techniques and rudiments- all while not disrupting the classrooms and offices around us!

My students are energetic, lively, intelligent, and LOVE anything hands on, so I am excited about giving them the opportunity to play drums again. I look forward to fun lessons, beautifully executed performances, and happy, engaged students!
