Learning Fair: Design an Instrument Project

Design an Instrument
Objective

Design an original instrument using unconventional materials, something that you have not seen done before and can make different sounds/notes. Your instrument must use at least one of these methods: plucking, blowing or striking. Consider your materials based on stability, strength, sound-proofing, insulation and reflectivity. 


We will be doing most work at school. There will be a planning process and a writing process that will all be done at school (unless students are not using time well). The building process will have to be done at home due to time and building material reasons. 

There will be a detailed schedule to follow in the next few days regarding what process will be done at school. It will be the students responsibility to have their designs mapped out in their minds for designated planning days. Please help create conversations at home regarding this activity as your child may need your helpful brain to support them. 

A package of the assignment will be going out this week at school. Do not hesitate to email me should you have any questions regarding the assignment.
