Woodwind instruments create sounds by blowing air into or across a mouthpiece. Examples of woodwind instruments are flutes, clarinets, oboes, and saxophones. The first woodwind instrument was a flute carved from the thighbone of a bear.
Today we played a woodwind game; they rolled cube two times, identified the two colors, and then pretended to play the color note pattern. The kids were encouraged to explore the flute and blow various sounds through it.
Woodwind instruments such as the flute, clarinet and saxophones are all able to create sound through breath. Today they discovered how to use and manipulate their breath to create colorful designs. The children pretended to play a woodwind instrument while creating their own framed masterpiece. They chose color of paint they wanted to use (they call chose the same colors). We used pipettes to put the watery paint on paper and straw to blow the paint across the paper.
We played musical instrument matching game.
For fine motor we traced zig zag lines. We also snuck in fine motor using the pipettes by squeezing with their little fingers! We also did some work in our fine motor journals.
I placed snowball letters and sight words on the table. The older kids know some of the sight words, for the kiddos that are not ready for sight words we find the letters to make the word for letter recognition.
