Expressing Emotions with Sounds
The Cedar group have noticed that the sounds we hear around us can be soft or loud.
When the sounds were too loud, the children blocked their ears
with their hand and showed discontent on their face. They did not enjoy
the loud noise and it made them feel upset.

To see how we can express ourselves through sounds, the children experimented
with how drum beats make them feel. Sophia felt that a slow beating of a drum made
her feel sad but for Kaitlyn, it sounded angry. To record our findings,
the children each chose a happy, angry, or sad expression to stick on their chart each time
I played the drum. It was interesting as we looked back at the expressions they chose.
Aston posted only sad expressions on his chart and Dorothy posted only angry expressions.

The children loved the way the drum sounded that they all wanted to make
their own drums for next time!
