Using two different cup sizes we made 4 beat patterns for each other to clap. The big cups equal whole beats and the smaller cups equal half-beats. It was lots of fun creating rhythms and conducting them for each other.
The Orff approach to music education weaves together storytelling, songs, movement/dance, and instrumental play in ensemble groups. It is centred on the playful exploration of the elements of music and children are given lots of opportunities to improvise and express their ideas creatively. Children have lots of experiences of successful collaborative music making. Check out what these classes have looked like in 2016 at Muritai School.
