Today in Music we became conductors! We have been learning about how they control an orchestra to make a piece of music. We started our lesson by being Miss Williams’ orchestra. Together we designed some symbols:

• Start
• Stop
• Play louder
• Play quieter
• Play faster
• Play slower

We practised using them to play a rainstorm with our instruments.

Then we split into groups. We designed and made our own symbols for the conductor to use. We used them to make our own rainstorms by following instructions. It was great fun! We have learnt a lot about how changing the speed and volume can change a piece of music.
