Boomwhacker Performances

5th Graders have been learning how to read notes in the treble clef.  To finish up this unit, each student was given a piece of written music to decode.  Students labelled the notes in their song and then color-coded it so it could be played on the Boomwhackers.  Then, students need to find the students with the same song as them so they could play it.  There is a lot of teamwork involved in playing a song on the Boomwhackers because each student has one note, and every member of the group needs to play at the correct time.  It took students some time to figure out the title of their song, but all groups eventually figured it out.

Check out the final performances below, divided by classroom.
