Today, P2A started to create their string instruments in preparation for learning how to be in an orchestra. Last week, they chose an string instrument that they would like to learn and the Big Noise Team put them into different groups: Violins, Violas, Cellos and Double Basses.

Using cardboard boxes and sheets, the children worked individually and in teams to create life-sized versions of their instruments.

Next week they will be learning about the different strings in preparation for learning about finger placement and holding a bow!

 

Miss Ely’s favourite photo from this Big Noise session is of the cello players holding their brand-new cardboard instruments.
