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.

Today, P2A got to experience 4 different string instruments with the Big Noise Team.

They looked at the violin, viola, cello and double bass and were able to take a turn playing the different instruments. They really enjoyed it and at the end were able to choose which instrument they wanted to learn. They are looking forward to starting this musical journey as is Miss Ely!
