The students would play the instruments to The Freeze. A list of instrument types would be on the board. The question would be asked, "Do you know what type of instrument you are playing?" I would add pictures to the types of instruments, asking for the students to help me place the pictures in the appropriate place on the graphic organizer and ask the question again. Depending on reading level I may sound out each letter of the word "percussion," discuss the word's syllables and affixes. I would show students how to find the meaning of the word in the dictionary. I would model to the students thinking about and then writing a new sentence using the word, "percussion." I may have the students say or write their own sentence about a percussion instrument then share it with their neighbor. I would ask for volunteers to share their sentences. I would ask the students if they would like to build a percussion instrument and then we would build it. When we were done we would discuss why the instrument meets the definition of "percussion instrument." Wed, 11 Aug 2021 01:03:43 -0400
