Year 3 have been reflecting on their learning about the instruments of the orchestra. We did the thinking routine "I used to think...But now I think..." to help us to identify the things we had learned so far in our unit. Here are some of our answers:
"I used to think that the piano wasn't part of the orchestra, but now I think that the piano is part of the percussion section because it is hit" - Olivia
"I used to think that the orchestra was made up of random instruments, but now I think that it is made up of families of instruments" - Ciara
"I used to think that there was only one drum in the orchestra, but now I think that there can be lots of different drums in the orchestra" - Jaime
"I used to think that the woodwinds were a big deal, but now I think that the strings are more of a big deal" - Eimear
"I used to think that orchestras were boring, but now I think they're exciting!" - Lila
Keep up the great work, Year 3!
