*If you scroll down the page, you can see some behind the scenes moments. - Go to Chrome Music Lab and click on the sound waves section. Explore what high/low notes do to the sound waves. https://musiclab.chromeexperiments.com/Sound-Waves/
What do you notice about how the sound waves move when you play the lowest note? The highest note? One in the middle? - Rhythm exploration:
- Use a blank sheet of paper to write down these rhythms:
- Look around your home and find objects that fit those rhythms (ex: “apple” fits two eighth notes, “coffee table” fits four sixteenth notes)
- Are there any objects that you would need to combine two or more rhythms to make them work? (Ex: what combination would fit “tissue box?”)
- Try different combinations of the words you found to create rhythm patterns!
