TIME TO LEARN ABOUT THE...

(8 MINUTE VIDEO)
JUST FOR FUN,
LET'S DO SOME MORE
BODY PERCUSSION
WE ARE NOW GOING TO PRACTICE
PLAYING THE PERCUSSION
TO THE SONG BY THE TROLLS,
I CAN'T STOP THAT FEELING
ALOT OF PEOPLE,
WHEN THEY HEAR PERCUSSION,
THINK OF THE DRUMS
Just for fun, let us now watch
a video of a DRUM competition
with girls against the boys
playing snare DRUMs and bass(base) DRUMs.
(I normally do not show the whole video of the competition in class, due to time. However, I do like to skim through the video, as I watch the reactions of the students. If they really want to see it all, they will let you know.)
For those of you who do not have a snare DRUM
we can use buckets for a DRUM.
The next video is of some young men playing on some
bucket DRUMS.
Yes, a bucket DRUM is just using a
bucket like a DRUM.
In order to be able to play the drums,
we need to practice.
Let us now practice on our laps,
if a bucket is not available,
if a bucket is not available,
To the "We Will Rock You" song
Now let us see if you can practice the rhythm
of hitting the beat on a DRUM, bucket, or lap.
But, before we practice the rhythm,
can you tell me what RHYTHM means?
RHYTHM means:
a strong repeated pattern of sound
or movement.
Just like the sound of playing drums.
Okay, now let us practice RHYTHM
playing some different kinds of RHYTHM.
Now, let us have fun learning how to play the snare drum.
Below is a video onhow to play the snare DRUM
I threw in this next video to remind me to do a
drum circle call and response in class, according to grade level.
