Sing the song 'If you're happy and you know it clap your hands'
as a start to using parts of the body to make sounds.
Children to make sounds themselves such as talking, whistling,
clapping, Children to feel their own faces and throats while
they are talking /singing and when they are not.
Explore different sounds made with their bodies. Child go behind
a screen and make a sound with their body. Guess which part of
the body was used to make the sound? Vary the sound by making it
soft, loud, short, long etc?
Use a 'Sound Bag' with a variety of objects inside and pass it
round. Children pull out an object and make as many sounds with
it as possible. Find other things in the classroom that make
interesting sounds.
Explore a variety of instruments. Look at how they are made -
the material, construction and parts. Discuss what you have to
do to make different sounds - bang, tap, scrape, shake, pluck
etc.
