Starting the presentation there is a video that shows the instrument itself, how it is played or a brief description of the materials or even the history of the instrument, depending on the level.

We can elicit any doubt about the instrument and the materials from the students.

Session 1 – Manufacturing.
We arrange the class in teams of four pupils and start reading out the steps. After answering any doubt about the process so far, let’s review we have all the materials.
The teacher must prompt children to explain the troubles they may find and try to work them out.

Session 2 – Pupils’ presentation
Every pupil introduce to their classmates the instrument orally according to the questions template at the end of Genially presentation.

What is the name….?

Where does the instrument come from?

What materials is it made of?

How to play it?
