Supportive Activity
• We just watched a video on Donald Knaack and we learned that instruments can be made out of recycled materials
• I want you all to write at least three everyday things that you can use to create music
• It can be small or big things, plastic or metal, or tin cans, or ANYTHING
• After 5 minutes I will ask that we list at least 10 things as a group on what we can use for our instruments
CHIMES • The greatest development of wind
chimes occurs in east and south Asia • They were used to attract benevolent
spirits • Were later used by farmers and sailors
to predict weather forecasts • Can be created by using string or a
material to suspend objects from another object – CDS – Washers (metal circles) – Spoons – Keys
