Always a classroom favorite, bucket drums and other percussion instruments are ideal ways to teach rhythmic concepts. This valuable resource is a great way to feel the joy of group performance without breaking your budget. Designed for beginners and intermediate students, this can also be flexibly adapted using the materials included. Unlike some bucket band music, this is written with just one bucket part, intended to be performed on a small to medium-size bucket. Every selection features rhythm sticks, though the tracks are designed to work with just buckets or any combination of the parts provided. Options change from tune to tune and may include Boomwhackers, ukulele, cowbell, shaker, guiro, and more. There are two basic types of tunes: games and game-like tunes, and grooves. The games each stand on their own, and the grooves are short, repetitive, and fun to play, with many repeats. Titles include: Grizzly Bear Groove; Buckets Are Forever (A Secret Agent Groove); Grape Jelly Groove; Divide & Echo; Build-a-Beat; Rhythm Roundabout and more! A great way to stretch your budget, the package includes a teacher's handbook, reproducible student parts, and P/A CD.
