PreK Students move to High & Low Sounds & Orff Instruments!
Posted by Megan KirkToday was a very exciting day for PK4! Today’s lesson was about high vs low sounds. We started with moving our bodies. When I played high notes on the piano students had to reach to the sky and tip toe around the room, when they heard a low note they had to crouch down to the floor as low as the could. Then when I played notes in the middle, they were to walk around the room. As I switched between the sounds, students quickly learned the difference between these pitches. The giggles and smiles were wonderful as they moved their bodies to the music. Especially when I switched quickly between the sounds! Next students showed their understanding by playing the high and low notes on the xylophone. Playing this orff instrument was extremely exciting for these students! I also loved how beautifully they took turns and were proud of each other for their performances on the instrument!
