This week, the Whack Pack took on “I’m Still Standing” by Elton John — and they had so much fun, they performed it on two different instruments! Check out how we used both desk bells and Boomwhackers to explore the same melody, practice teamwork, and make a joyful noise!
🛎️ Version 1: Desk Bells
Color-coded desk bells make it easy (and fun!) for students to play melodies together in perfect harmony. This performance shows how far the Whack Pack has come in their note reading and listening skills! Click here to watch.
🎵 Version 2: Boomwhackers
Boomwhackers bring energy and rhythm to everything — and this version of “I’m Still Standing” is no exception! Students learned to follow the beat, stay on pitch, and work together as a team. It’s a blast to watch! Click here to watch.
💬 Why We Do It
Learning to play the same song on different instruments builds strong musical foundations and helps reinforce:
- Pitch recognition
- Rhythm skills
- Visual learning through color
- Confidence and collaboration
We’re so proud of our Whack Pack for their hard work and joyful performances!
