Preview of the first page of Designing a Musical Instrument

Children select a musical instrument family, creatively design and draw their own imaginary instrument, and then colour and label it with teacher guidance.

On the sheet

The sheet contains a large blank canvas area for drawing and three small reference illustrations on the left of musical instrument families: Brass family (trumpet), String family (electric guitar), and Percussion family (tambourine). Children select a family, design/draw their own instrument, color it, name it, and label its parts.
