The concerts today were a blast and the kids were mesmerized the whole time. We teachers learned that using a whistle and a few signals is just as effective as talking and giving a lot of instructions. We might try that in our classrooms next week! The performers talked about recycling and about rhythm. Their website is here: http://www.junkyardsymphony.com/bios.html for those of you who want to see them and let the children do some follow up activities such as making rhythm instruments from recycled materials. They were a LOT of fun and we all thank the parent committee for setting up this great activity.
