Additional Music Activities
Second, COMPLETE at least one additional music activity.
If you only have time for one additional activity, that's great; if you want to complete all of the additional activities for this week, that's awesome. Do what you can!
This week we will be exploring orchestral percussion instruments. Choose one or two of these activities to explore through the week:
- WATCH - Mr. DiFabio’s Instrument Spotlight Video about Orchestral Percussion
- LISTEN - Listen to Radetzky March by Johann Strauss. As you listen, think about the following:
- Do you hear the cymbals crashing?
- Can you find the steady beat?
- Can you march to the steady beat? Jump? Tiptoe?
- What is another way you can move to the music?
- LISTEN & FOLLOW - As you watch and listen to the Can Can Percussion Listening Map, follow along. Each symbol represents a different percussion instrument! Can you hear how they sound different?
