Help me make simple rhythmic patterns on everyday soundmakers and percussion instruments
Over time, make sure I have different soundmaking options:
- Put my hand over yours while you tap a simple beat on a drum with your fingers …
- Then let me try on my own
- Show me how to hold a stick to make a regular beat on instruments and other soundmakers
- Show me how to make patterns in other ways too – with shakers and scrapers
- But remember, patterns start in my head, not in my hand …
- So guide me with your hand under mine, so that I am always in control
