K–12 teaching and learning · from the UNC School of Education

I teach at three K-8 schools in Watauga County. Cove Creek Elementary, Valle Crucis Elementary, and Mabel Elementary

I have been teaching for 26 years. However, 11 of those years were in high school. I have just recently returned to the elementary music classroom.

"Eggs-tra" special sounds
Students will identify, compare, and classify the sounds made by plastic eggs filled with rice, pebbles, and salt. They will graph the results of their discoveries. They will then compose and tape sound pieces illustrating dynamic levels they discovered. Finally they will construct their own "maraca" using plastic eggs.
