RHYTHM READ & PLAY

Activities for Classroom Instruments

Grab those metals, woods and membranes because it's time for some percussion discussion! Actively involve your students with easy-to-follow read and play parts to accompany familiar folk songs, marches, spirituals, holiday favorites and more. More advanced readers play from musical notation, while beginning readers follow instrument pictures. For added play along fun, rehearse with the demonstration tracks when learning the parts, and then use the motivating and hip accompaniment tracks when you are ready to perform! Perfect for classroom or stage, these 14 songs will provide percussion fun throughout the year. For extra value, all the written music is reproducible, and five songs offer singer parts. Let's get discussin'! Suggested for Grades 1-6.
