E-Learning Rotation #4

Found Sounds!

K-5

For this assignment, you are going to find or make your own instruments. Thank you goes to Mrs. Marmoll and Mrs. Smith for inspiring this with their science lesson.

K-1 I recommend finding a drum type instrument.
2-3 Try to make your own shaking or scraping instrument.
4-5 Try to make an instrument that has 2 or more pitches.

In my video, I used items found in my kitchen. You are welcome to use anything found in or around your home. I love finding and creating new sounds with all kinds of things.

Please post a photo or video of your instrument(s) here (also see a bonus video of one of my other musical instrument creations).

If you don't want to share your video/photo on flip grid you can email it instead.

Each activity was chosen for a specific grade level, but students should be encouraged to explore. I'd love to see what the kids come up with. Please send screenshots or recordings to my email. All Grades Vocal Warm up Explore the  vocal oscillators . By clicking on one of the characters and moving up and down, you can make siren noises.
