Students in Kindergarten Music Class celebrate the musical experience by bringing from home a "kitchen item" that can be used as a Musical Instrument!


Sound characteristics such as Pitch, Tempo and Dynamics are discussed and demonstrated.
"Kitchen items" are separated into 
3 Musical Family Groups:


Percussion Family
String Family
Wind Family

 
Students then "march" around the room to the musical piece, "King Cotton March" composed by the famous March King: 
John Philip Sousa (1834-1932)

"Jazz will endure just as long as people hear it through their feet instead of their brains."
-John Philip Sousa
