Body Percussion Poster
These posters are a great way to get your students moving! The first page is a staff where the class can create their own body percussion patterns/ostinatos. The second page serves as a reminder to students of the four levels of body percussion: snap, clap, pat and stomp. My students reference it constantly to generate steady beat ideas.
