I used two glass jars and filled them with a different amount of soup mix to make percussion instruments. They made different sounds, the smaller jar made a lower sound and the taller jar made a higher sound. It was amazing. - Damon
ReplyDeleteHello, I made a guitar from a box, some string and a long roll. It makes sounds but not like a real guitar. I like my guitar alot because it has butterfly stickers on it. From OLIVIA UZELAC
ReplyDeleteI used foam, bright coloured pins, elastic bands and straws to make my instrument. It is 2 in 1 as it makes a hissing sound by blowing in the straws and a boingy sound when you flick the elastics. I call it a Ukastraw. Ha Ha

I made a guitar using a shoe box, elastic bands and a ruler for the handle. When I plucked the elastic bands, they made a twang sound. Each elastic band made a different sound, some higher and some lower. I had fun making my guitar, and I am happy how it turned out.

ReplyDeleteI made a tambourine.
ReplyDeleteI made it with a wooden circle which I cover with some colored paper. I added some ribbons and bells around the edges and put glittering stickers. I made a shaking sound and also I could use it as a drum on one side. I had lots of fun making it and always playing with my tambourine.

I made a guitar like a few other people. I used a shoebox from my dad and cut a hole in it and an empty roll which I helped cut to make it smaller. For the strings I used some rubber bands. I am very happy with my guitar and I think it sounds great.

I made a cross between a drum, a flute, a guitar and a didgeridoo. It made lots of sounds like whistling, tapping and strumming. I used elastic bands and a tube that had holes in it. I had the worst drum stick in the world, a broken pencil. I liked it was a cross of lots of different instruments.
