Activity 2

Music is also a form of communication.

Encourage pupils to consider which instruments they might use to interpret these shapes or the movement made by them.

Can they produce a musical interpretation that moves through the picture?
Will they start in the middle or the top right/left?
Do some shapes represent louder or longer sounds?

Do shapes represent a lone instrument or a group playing together?

How can they record the graphic score for their composition?

Can the music be used to accompany a spoken version of poems written?
