2nd Grade Instrument Songs

In 2nd grade, they are working on a project with the instruments and the steady beat.  They are using different symbols representing instruments (bells, rhythm sticks, tambourines, hand drums, triangles, and finger cymbals) to create their own composition.  When we are done creating the compositions, each group gets to show theirs off to the class and we'll play their song all together!  These pictures show 2nd grade hard at work on their songs.


These boys are working very hard on their song!


The ladies are drawing their symbols with perfect precision!


These boys are planning out their ideas before writing them down on paper!

I will have to post a few examples of our group work when we finish next week!!
