Summary:

Some of my students had a difficult time learning to play on just their count when learning boomwhacker songs. One day during class I conducted an experiment. What if the notes were basic and the notes where the same color as the boomwhacker each student is playing.

The result was amazing! Light bulbs started to click with my students and it made class much more enjoyable and less frustrating for the students and myself.
