My students will use these instruments to learn steady beat, dynamics, rhythms, and tempo. Rhythm instruments are used in music class almost every day. Research shows that all students have different ways of learning and catering to all learning styles helps student success. These rhythm instruments will allow students with each learning style to be successful. I chose this set of rhythm instruments because it has a large variety of instruments and some varieties I do not have in my classroom. This set will also replace some instruments that have broken due to the frequency which they are used. In my classroom, students will use these sets by striking, scraping, or shaking them to a given beat. When I introduce a new musical concept to my students, they use the rhythm instruments to learn and reinforce the new concept. Instruments are such a vital part of my music class, and having these instrument varieties will enhance my students' learning experiences.
