This month for I Love to Read, we've been exploring the various non-pitched percussion instruments we have in our classroom. We have been deciding and selecting instruments to create soundscapes and that make good sound effects for different parts in our stories. Our Grade 1/2 classes are learning an arrangement to CLICK, CLACK, MOO Cows that Type by Doreen Cronin.
We first listened to this fantastic performance that was created around the sounds of the typewriter, many of which my students had never seen or heard.
Today as I was looking at different videos for this performance, I came across another fun one using sandpaper blocks. Not everyday you hear a solo performance and symphony experience centered around that instrument!
