Clapping games and body percussion

Activity shared by Álvaro Barriuso. The project I made relates to clapping games and body percussion . As a natural musical instrument (like the voice), body percussion and clapping  is  used in traditional music  worlwide . The students can watch some of  this videos  and learn how children play in other countries and cultural contexts.  They can also watch some interesting uses of body percussion  around the world. If we have time, we could even make an augmented reality (AR) map using some of the information provided in the  Bibliograpy  and sele cting  youtube  videos. We could make groups and insert this kind of material in the map. I provide some examples in the document. I really enjoyed this research. Thak you for leading me into it!
