Years 1 & 2: Musical Inventions


In conjunction with their classroom theme this term, Musical Inventions, students constructed their own instrument, and thoroughly enjoyed the process. First we discussed types of instruments: percussion, string and wind. Students designed their instrument and gave it a unique name. We shared these at the end of the session and students also explained how to play their instrument. Some instruments were very versatile with percussion, string and wind capabilities. Brilliant! Year 2 students also wrote an Artist Statement about their instrument.
