Year 4 Instruments

In Year 4 as homework we had to make musical instruments. There were music boxes, drums, shakers, bells, blowers, xylophones and guitars. We studies how sound waves move around into your ear and get processed into your brain. Everyone had a go at chiming the tuning fork and creating sound waves. We looked inside the ear and what parts of the ear do. Also we did some fill in the gaps writing t see what happened.

Mrs Khurana came in to talk about how high and low pitch worked. On the thin band the noise was a higher pitch because the band caused more vibration and on the thick band there was less vibration and the sound was lower.
