These buckets allow the students to get into their own, separated space and learn together. With how the buckets carry the sound, they are able to all still work together while remaining apart. They're simple, yet effective for bucket drumming units in my music classroom. Students practice drumstick rhythms while whacking the buckets like drums and create their own bands in a new different way!
Normally in a classroom that has these instruments, it is common for students to partner up and both hover over the same bucket. However, this will be enough for every student to be able to have their own and actively participate and engage in the fun the entire time.
This also can be utilized post Covid times as well! Since I have the students for 4th, 5th, and 6th grade, the students will be able to build on their skills over the years and continue to grow as their learn more control, technique, and skill.
