Have you wanted to try drumming in your middle school classroom but weren't sure how to go about it? That's why this book was written--to present an easy, up-to-date way to incorporate drumming into what you teach already.
The first nine lessons have 8 segments each for you to choose among: Essential Question, Say & Play, Create, Perform, History, Respond/Listening, Closure, and Teacher Reflection. Lesson 10 features a performance or final review. Included are intros to cultural drumming, world grooves, maps, instrument intros, flashcards, assessment sheets, quizzes, all reproducible. The groove rhythms are player simply and then in extended versions on the CD.

This is a straightforward, unintimidating approach to including drumming in your music class, and would also be great for team teaching in cross-curricular topics.
