Taiko Drums Are Coming!

The fifth grade is just finishing up their unit on Caribbean music with some salsa dancing. Despite the sweaty palms and bumping into each other, we had a such a fun time. There were a few surprises in the dance department as well. Who knew?!

We are getting closer to having our own complete Gomi Daiko (garbage can taiko) ensemble. I am putting the last pairs of legs on this week (weather permitting), and hopefully assembling the heads this weekend (fingers crossed!).

I hope the fifth grade is as excited as I am to learn more about taiko and master some new skills.

Tanoshimu! (looking forward to it!)
Ms. P.
