How does the sound of the snare drum prouced?
The snare drum is different to normal drums, as it has two skins. Under the bottom on are a series of chain-like-things. (Sorry for not being more specific). When you hit the top skin, the bottom one vibrates making the chains rattle. The snare is the "chain-like-thing" referenced above and it really isn't chain-like at all. A snare is several long, thin, metal strands with a very tight spiral pattern. They are stretched along the resonant head (bottom head) of the snare drum. The vibrations of the snare against the head produces the snare drum's signature sound. The snare can be tightened or loosened to change this sound from a sharp crack to a soft fizzle.

There really is no specific size that you have to be. As long as you are capable of marching drill while carrying the weight of the snare drum. We have students anywhere from very small and under 5ft tall to larger build and 6ft tall. If you are physically capable of carrying the drum and have the proper skills to play the parts then your size shouldn't matter at all.
How a snare drum works?
It can be played in different ways, marching style which is more rudimental (look up the "26 Standard Snare Drum Rudiments"), clave style which the terms would be called "rim knocks", "rim taps", or "cross rim" depending on where/who you learned from, drum kit style which is where it is primarily used to strenghthen the back beats, and in the fashion of a tom when flipping the snare switch off. The list aboves shows how snare drum is often played but really the snare drum as well as any other drum or cymbal can be played however you want it to be, no one can set the limit on your creativity but you. I hope this is what you were looking for. If not then I hope you enjoyed the lesson. :)
