With school back in session, now is the perfect time to offer an in-school interactive rhythm program for your students or faculty!
Yes, you can drum at school! There are a growing number of schools that are offering group drumming and music making programs as a part of their optional in-school enrichment programs. Just Add Rhythm offers one-hour enrichment drumming programs that can be offered as a one-time, weekly, monthly or year-long residency. These programs are great for:
- Optional in-school programs;
- Theme-based single events (Black History Month, National Women’s History Month, spring break, anti-bullying, etc.);
- Year-round or mini-residency group drumming courses as arts or music fulfillment; or
- Staff training, focusing on leadership, effective communication, and incorporating rhythm into curricula.
In-school group drumming programs vary from after-school enrichment in that the students will be able to directly apply what they’ve learned to their everyday classroom situations. Topics covered during drumming sessions can range from communication to leadership skills to peaceful conflict resolution. Sessions are hands-on and theme-based rather than centered around performance skills (although students are often eager to share what they’ve learned with their teachers and families!). Students learn practical real-world skills while having a ton of fun at the same time!
