7th Grade Drummers!

Welcome to our second lesson! We will begin with a quick review of the norms and expectations that we wrote yesterday.

All the drums are set up. Today's lesson will be divided into 4 parts.

Part One:
Tradition of Excellence Book 2! We are going to be doing a lot of work out of the book this year. We need to make sure we have a copy. I do have some extras here for an emergency. Our goal this week is to master lesson one on Timpani, Snare, Bass, and Mallets. We will be working in teams to achieve this.

Part Two:
Drum set unit: This year we need to review the rock, swing, and latin beats. We will be working more on the Bossa Nova, and covering fills and improvised solos in each major style.

Part Three: Western Region Audition Information and information for orchestra and jazz band auditions.

Part Four: Online activities! We need to make sure we are all on Google Classroom and all have access to a device so that we can do our online music activities.
