Continuing our inquiry into stories, we have been exploring music as a storytelling medium. Last week in music, we worked with Ms. Marnie to tell our own version of Little Red Riding Hood using music. Ms. Marnie and Ms. Alison noticed that this was a challenging idea for the children. They seemed to prefer other methods like using props and acting. When instruments were used it seemed more random than intentional.
This week in our main classroom we tried telling a story with music again - this time in a different way. After reading a big book version of The Three Little Pigs , we each selected an instrument. We wondered: which instrument sound might connect with which characters and events in the story? We then turned through the pages of the story again. This time instead of reading, we played our instruments to represent the storyline!
