FS have had a fantastic week exploring different musical instruments. They have been creating music by using repeating patterns and trying to play them correctly. #youngmusician#repeatingpatterns#creatingmusic
FS were cutting & sticking pictures of instruments to make patterns and then performing their compositions this afternoon during free flow. They recalled the names of the percussion instruments and could play loudly, quietly, quickly and slowly. ๐ฅ
