This week in Counting the beat we have been learning about percussion music and what it is. Percussion music is beats used to make music and hitting objects with any object. We learnt about the different the different types of percussion music such as body percussion which is when you use your body to make sounds and beats. We also got to watch some videos of people doing body percussion to songs. The one that was mostly interesting was this guy making sounds with his armpit here is the video: Ethiopian armpit music .Today we got into groups of three and tried bringing some items from home to make music, I brought a pot, pan chop sticks and a wooden spoon to create music.
The people in my group are Venice, Hollie, Amanda and me we firstly wanted to pick the song Havana but then we changed it to believer cause we liked the beat better. I used a pot and chopsticks, Venice used a counting frame and a wooden spoon, Hollie and Amanda used a long stick thingy ( I don't know what it's called) and their feet to make beats. Have you ever made a beat before?
Here is our beat:
