Help Mr. P.

Music class is a very important facet of the instructional day. Ethnic drums and rhythm instruments allow elementary students to investigate rhythm, beat and making music. Rhythm activities directly correlate to the Indiana State Standards for Music: "Playing an instrument alone and with others." and "Reading, notating and interpreting music." Classroom instruments such as kjembe, bongos, tom-tom's, conga, and hand drums along with rhythm sticks and other ethnic rhythm instruments will allow my students to not only learn about beat and rhythm but also about the country and cultures that these instruments originate from.
