The different timbres and beautiful rhythms of percussion instruments often attract many children to participate in activities. Put in musical instruments that children are familiar with, so that children can feel the timbre of various instrumental music and review various rhythm patterns in the process of percussion. Small class children are more likely to accept the rhythm of 2/4 beat, while middle class and large class children can practice the rhythm of syncopation and rest of 3/4 beat and 4/4 beat. The rhythm cards provided can be illustrated graphically, such as "hand" for clapping, "foot" for stamping, "triangle" for triangle, and "bell" for ringing the bell, so that children can understand music practice at a glance and are interested. The middle class and the big class can show the whole song they have learned in the performance area by graphics and text. Maybe the children will form a small band by themselves and elect a small conductor to play music like a band. Sometimes percussion combined with singing and dancing can make children happy.
