We watched a STOMP video and there were people using percussion instrument to make a sound and after that we had to pick a song to make a beat to, our song was Another One Bites The Dust. Then we had to make a beat with a group with random instruments to make a beat to the song, my group had Logan, and Beniah in it.

The instruments we used in the group was a cardboard tube that I hit with a jandle to make an echo sound, Logan had a type of maraca thing that made a shaking sound, and Beniah used cones to hit the ground to also make a loud echo noise. 

Here is the STOMP video of our group...
