LONG OVERDUE, but here it is in all of its glory!

Nearly 300 Bucket Drumming Arrangements, Resources, Games, and more in the OFFICIAL Mr. Litt's Music Room Bucket Drumming Anthology!

This free resource is a comprehensive list of everything in the store, alphabetized and grouped by genre, difficulty level, and other resources.

This will be updated each time there is a new resource added, so feel free to peruse or download every so often :)

Clickable links are in the PDF and Word Document files which take you straight to the page to purchase or add to your wish list.

In "A Mile to the Nile", introduce your kids to some great music from indigenous instruments from Africa! Using your classroom Djembe or Tubanos, learn the music by rote by taking it one rehearsal section at a time (with rehearsal markings [A], [B], [C], and so forth). This is terrific practice with your older students who want to work on alternating hands, especially with trickier syncopations!

The notation on the first space F is a bass (middle of the drum) and the notation on the third space C is a tone (four fingers near the rim of the drum, pitched a bit higher)

At the end, wrap it up and put on a show! Want to layer it?

• Have tambourines or shakers play on specified beats (try 2 and 4)
• Have shakers play 16th notes all the way throughout or in specific sections
• Have half the class play 1st and 3rd measures, the other half play 2nd and 4th measures
• Do it in a round! :)

Use this in class, a concert, a parent showcase, admin, faculty and staff, whatever you wish!

Have a terrific time with this one :)

In "12 to 12", introduce your kids to some great music from indigenous instruments from Africa! Using your classroom Djembe or Tubanos, learn the music by rote by taking it one rehearsal section at a time (with rehearsal markings [A], [B], [C], and so forth). This is terrific practice with your older students who want to work on alternating hands, especially in the selected meter of 12/8

The notation on the first space F is a bass (middle of the drum) and the notation on the third space C is a tone (four fingers near the rim of the drum, pitched a bit higher)

At the end, wrap it up and put on a show! Want to layer it?

• Have tambourines or shakers play on specified beats (try 2 and 4)
• Have shakers play 16th notes all the way throughout or in specific sections
• Have half the class play 1st and 3rd measures, the other half play 2nd and 4th measures

In "Take it to Mali", introduce your kids to some great music from indigenous instruments from Africa! Using your classroom Djembe or Tubanos, learn the music by rote by taking it one rehearsal section at a time (with rehearsal markings [A], [B], [C], and so forth). This is terrific practice with your older students who want to work on alternating hands

The notation on the first space F is a bass (middle of the drum) and the x notation on the third space C is a tone (four fingers near the rim of the drum, pitched a bit higher)

At the end, wrap it up and put on a show! Want to layer it?

• Have tambourines or shakers play on specified beats (try 2 and 4)

• Have half the class play 1st and 3rd measures, the other half play 2nd and 4th measures

Need to connect with your kids with their pop music through general music? Involve them in a custom bucket drumming arrangement with Queen's famous hit "We Will Rock You"

Although us music teachers know that there's a 3 quarter note ostinato throughout the entire song, this custom arrangement challenges your kids with eighth notes sand alternating hands that align with lyrics. Lots of variation in this one!

There are two all-color coded slides along with the form identifiers listed next to each phrase. Discuss form with the students and teach them (by rote) the rhythms on the powerpoint with the corresponding repeats (most are repeated 4 times). Then, apply it to drums!

All regular notation is to be played on the buckets (or drums, or ground, however you wish), and the X notation (with a down stem) are played as stick clicks above their head (or you could apply it to a tambourine or other auxiliary instrument)

Here's the track so you can play along...

Un Monde Meilleur is a recent Keen'V song about a better world and what it would be like. He uses the future and conditional tenses quite a bit in the song. This activity packet contains a page with a grammar explanation and practice, 2 different cloze activities (one with, one without vocabulary list) to be done while listening to the song, a lyric translation activity and a short reading about Keen'V.

The activity would likely be good for intermediate/advanced students.

More on the hit list with your bucket drumming kids, we present Owl City's hit song from 2012, "Good Time"!

There are three all-color coded slides along with the form identifiers listed next to each phrase. Discuss form with the students and teach them (by rote) the rhythms on the powerpoint with the corresponding repeats (most are repeated 4 or 8 times). Then, apply it to drums!

All regular notation is to be played on the buckets (or drums, or ground, however you wish), and the X notation that is stacked with quarter notes are played as shots (think like a marching band snare drum -- playing the drum and stick simultaneously as a rimshot or on top of each other -- whatever will you get you the best accent!)

Note: It feels like the sixteenth notes should be swung a bit, but they may go so fast you (and your audience) may not know!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H7HmzwI67ec

More on the hit list with your bucket drumming kids, we present Bruno Mars' hit song from 2010, "Grenade"!

There are four all-color coded slides along with the form identifiers listed next to each phrase. Discuss form with the students and teach them (by rote) the rhythms on the powerpoint with the corresponding repeats (most are repeated 2-6 times). Then, apply it to drums!

All regular notation is to be played on the buckets (or drums, or ground, however you wish), and the X notation (with a down stem) are played as stick clicks above their head (or you could apply it to a tambourine or other auxiliary instrument)

This one is quite advanced and may take a few lessons to get solidified. There are multiple sixteenth note phrases throughout the piece so the students aren't constantly playing the same rhythms -- lots of variety! It'll take a few lessons to line everyone up for the younger ones, but a chance to practice some good steady rhythms!

Here's the track so you can play along...

More on the hit list with your bucket drumming kids, we present Weezer's hit song from 1994, "Buddy Holly"!

There are three all-color coded slides along with the form identifiers listed next to each phrase. Discuss form with the students and teach them (by rote) the rhythms on the powerpoint with the corresponding repeats (most are repeated 2, 4 , or 6 times). Then, apply it to drums!

Need to connect with your kids with their pop music through general music? Involve them in a bucket drumming arrangement of the Beach Boys' hit song "Surfin' USA"!

There are three all-color coded slides along with the form identifiers listed next to each phrase. Discuss form with the students and teach them (by rote) the rhythms on the powerpoint with the corresponding repeats (most are repeated in groups of 7x and 1x or 6x and 2x). Then, apply it to drums!

All regular notation is to be played on the buckets (or drums, or ground, however you wish), and the X notation that is stacked with quarter notes are played as shots (think like a marching band snare drum -- playing the drum and stick simultaneously as a rimshot or on top of each other -- whatever will you get you the best accent!)

The X notation (with a down stem) are played as stick clicks above their head (or you could apply it to a tambourine or other auxiliary instrument)

Here's the track for you to play along:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EDb303T-B1w

Have fun with this and let us know how it goes!

What is the best way to teach number formation? Put it to a rhyme of course!

Help your young learners remember how to write numbers 1-10 with these fun rhymes. Not only does it help them remember during handwriting time, but it also helps them make a visual connection when recognizing numbers.

If you have students struggling with number recognition, practice the rhymes in a variety of ways: sand, whiteboard/marker, bumpy boards, air write, etc. so they get a full multi-sensory experience to solidify number recognition.

Added bonus of a pastel or rainbow one page reference sheet for teachers to laminate and keep at small group table, front board or anywhere you practice numbers!

I have included both a pastel and rainbow color set to mach any classroom decor!

Looking for more traditional number posters for math demonstrated a variety of ways? Check out my 1-20 number posters:
