Sažetak
In recent years, body percussion has emerged as a useful and important activity, not only in music therapy programs, but also in everyday work with students. It is therefore surprising that activities related to body percussion are rarely described in current primary school curricula. Thus, the 2006 elementary school curriculum mentions only "free rhythmicizing by imitating the teacher"(NPP 2006: 72). To determine how much the terms related to body percussion are used during the lessons, current music textbooks have been analysed. Since most of the content related to the rhythm in the subject of music is taught in year four, year four textbooks have been analysed. The analysis found that the use of professional terminology related to this activity is avoided in textbooks. Textbook of Školska knjiga publishing house mentions activities related to body percussion the least - only twice (Dvořak, Jeličić Špoljar and Kirschmayer Bilić 2013). The textbook of Alfa publishing house mentions these activities more frequently, but it avoids the use of terms: the words "clapping" and "different body movements" are mentioned and the activities are described in picture as well. The textbook of Profil publishing house mentions activities related to body percussion the most, and even offers a Croatian word to replace the English name: tjeloglazba. The term appears in the textbook for as many as 13 times (Sikirica, Stojaković i Miljak 2017). In addition to this term, body percussion activities are depictured descriptively ; we can find words like "clapping", "taping", and „kicking the foot on the floor" in the textbook. The term itself is not described in text, but at the beginning of the textbook there are a few photographs depicturing the body percussion activities (Sikirica, Stojaković i Miljak 2017: 6). It is interesting to note that only the Profil textbook has a glossary at the end, but the glossary does not specify and describe this term. The paper investigates how well-suited the term tjeloglazba is as a 'translation' of the expression body percussion. The lack of terms associated with body percussion in Croatian language is evident, and since these activities are greatly returning to school curricula, it may soon become problematic. This paper, apart from the term tjeloglazba, explores which terms must be introduced (or translated from a foreign language) to describe this activity.
