Composing with Movement is a beginner’s guide to body percussion. Students start by making the sound of a thunderstorm with their bodies. Then, they play the Body Percussion Game, where they practice clapping, snapping, patting, and tapping to a steady beat. Finally, they use printable body percussion cards to compose their own body percussion composition.
⚠️You’ll need a recording of a piece of music with a clearly defined beat. You’ll use this during the Body Percussion Game. ⚠️
