Create Your Own Instrument!
Music is more than just what you hear on the radio or on the TV. Many things can make noises and become music if they are played at just the right! Your task for this week is to create your own instrument using things found around your house. It can be using a pot as a drum to tying strings to a box and creating a string instrument! Be as creative! Once you create your instrument, choose your favorite song to play your instrument along with it. You will submit a picture of your instrument and an explanation of how your instrument works using the questions in Step Five to Google Classroom by Thursday, April 9th. Follow the steps below to complete the assignment. Please see Mrs. Jakubowski’s example to see how the process should be/how the complete assignment should look.
