The future of music?

Along with 'paper bowl guitars' and 'ruler twanging' we have been creating kazoos from straws! We discover that the shorter the straw, the higher the pitch of the sound created.
Remember: when the vibrations are SLOW, the pitch is LOW
Tomorrow, we will be communicating via cups and string and exploring how sound travels.

Exploring Pitch

Today year 6 have been exploring sound. Ask your children about the instruments they have made using straws!

Christmas is coming!

Today, to get us into the Christmas spirit, Apple class have been creating Christmas decorations for a mobile which will hang in our school hall. We each painted one of our hands and made handprints on our bauble. Once this had dried, we drew on little snowmen to create these fantastic decorations!

Merry Christmas!
