Hi 1st Grade!

Please work on these music activities for approximately 30 minutes on one of the following days: May 4-8. Have fun!

Start by watching this short video from Mrs. Kapustka to hear about today's lesson!

Today is our last day working on percussion instruments. On Seesaw, you will complete two activities to show me what you have learned about percussion instruments.

Remember:

• A percussion instrument is an instrument that you either strike, shake, or scrape in order to play it.

• Percussions instruments can also be sorted by their tone color into the categories wood, metal, and membrane.

Part 1: Music Seesaw Activity

• Log into your Music Seesaw page.

• Go to the Activities section of your Music Seesaw page. Open and complete these two activities:

  • Wood, Metal, Membrane - Instrument Sort

  • Strike, Shake, Scrape - Instrument Sort

• The directions are included in each activity. On each page, use the button that looks like a hand with a rectangle. This tool will let you click and drag the instruments from the right side of the page into the boxes where they belong. Have fun!
