Today's topic was Music! We first asked the kids what instruments they know and their favorite song before we started the slideshow. We then presented it and asked the kids what music was to them. We talked about the different genres of music, rock, pop, classical and showed them music videos of each type and how they sound like. We then moved onto instruments. We talked about the different families in instruments, brass, string, woodwinds, and lute. We then continued to talk about how music is not only made from instruments but also your voice. We showed videos of people singing and how even without instruments music is made! Finally, after that, we played 2 games. One was a quiz that let the kids pick an option from the questions and the end gave them an instrument they should play based on their personality and the choices they picked! Another was a game that the kids found as a lot of fun! They played a sound and gave us pictures of instruments and we had to guess what instrument the sound came from. It helped the kids learn about the spellings of the instruments as well as associate an instrument to its name. All in all, it was a good wrap up game for the kids to learn about the sounds the instruments make!
