Snare Drum-    The snare drum is made up of two pieces the chains underneath and the drum.  When you hit the drum the chains bounce and hit the bottom of the drum which makes a sound.

Bells- The Bells have two mallets that you hit the xylophone with, and the bells are like pianos because there all the same keys except you play with your hands on it.     

Bass Drum-The bass drum has two sides you can hit it on usually you only have one stick to hit it with ,but in high school band you have two they hit with.  The bass drum is the biggest drum or bass drum in Percussion it also has the lowest sound. That leads the band.
