Christmas Tuned Percussion Notation Cards

“We are Percussionists” aims to teach the fundamentals of pulse and rhythm through the use of untuned and tuned percussion. This pack contains three Christmas tunes for children to learn; Twinkle Twinkle, Jingle Bells and We Wish You a Merry Christmas.

Notation cards enable children to become familiar with well-known tunes, before exploring syllable patterns using tuned percussion. They then use colour-coded notation to play the rhymes, developing their early musical skills and understanding of musical patterns. Each notation card has three parts; melody line, harmony line, and two part melody/harmony.
