Clapping games and body percussion

Activity shared by Álvaro Barriuso.

The project I made relates to clapping games and body percussion. As a natural musical instrument (like the voice), body percussion and clapping is used in traditional music worlwide.

The students can watch some of this videos and learn how children play in other countries and cultural contexts.

They can also watch some interesting uses of body percussion around the world. If we have time, we could even make an augmented reality (AR) map using some of the information provided in the Bibliograpy and selecting youtube videos. We could make groups and insert this kind of material in the map. I provide some examples in the document.

I really enjoyed this research. Thak you for leading me into it!

Penny Lane

Activity shared by M.Consuelo Manchado. My project is a mural compound by different collages that students would do in teams. Those works represent all the scenes depicted in the song "Penny Lane", by The Beatles. A label with the extract of the lyrics would be displayed as well. This project should be devoloped both in the English and Art lessons, as there are some grammar structures to be taught and research to be done (apart from activities related to the lyrics itself). I think this song provides a good opportunity to learn some things about other cutures (in this case, the Brithish culture). It would be interesting to compare and contrast different features in our towns and theirs. For example, means of transport (the double-decker bus), red post boxes, police officers' helmet and uniform, how the queu at the bus stop... So many differences! Apart from that, in the project students will learn about the band itself, their members. It would be a good start

The Carnival of the animals

THE CARNIVAL OF THE ANIMALS • In this activity the kids will listen four (or more) pieces of this beautiful musical work by Camille Saint-Saëns and make their pictures with them. You will need: - This link: - A3 paper divided in four parts with a big cross and number them 1-4. - Pencils, crayons, markers… Instructions: - Put the photos of the animals you have choosen on the board. - Explain them, that we are in the jungle and we have to guess which animal is sounding in each moment and draw it the listening order in the paper. - Put the music of the four parts you have choosen and they have to make the pictures. When they have finished, they should explain their classmates what animal is in each square. For example: “I think that number one is…” As well you can ask them: “Do you think number one is a…? Yes, I do/No, I don’t”. Depending on the grade you use this activity. CAROLINA RUIZ FAVA
