Boom a Tunes Curriculum
A comprehensive teaching program using Boomwhackers tuned percussion tubes. Educational lyrics introduce the location of notes on the staff and integrate singing and playing to involve the entire class. The colors of the different tubes are also used to help teach note recognition. Each song reinforces the location and identification of one or more notes; lesson/performance suggestions and a related activity are also given. Reproducible worksheets are also included. Piano scores are given to accompany each song; alternately, use the tracks on the included CD. The lesson plans and activities address the National Music Standards.
