Lesson Sequence:



- Students will do warm up activity on their own then they will share their ideas a class

- Teacher will introduce the xylophone activity they will create in class

- After Introduction to activity as a whole class we will fill out a KWL chart about

what they know about sound and what they want to learn about doing the xylophone

activity.

-In small groups of 6 students will create their own xylophones using glass 4 glass bottles

water and a spoon, pencil. By adjusting the amount of water they put in the glass bottles

they will be able to change the sound they make.

-They will also be able to see the vibrations in the water they make when they hit the

bottle

-As a final reflection students will have discussion in their groups about what happened when they changed the amount of water in the glass bottles and anything else they found

interesting from the activity.

Review/Assessment:

This will be very hands on activity. The assessment will be oral as the students will share

first in their groups what they learned about this activity then whey will get to share with

the class and fill out the KWL chart as a class on their findings.

Reflection: I have not done this lesson in a classroom but I expect students to be very engaged since

they will be able to create their own musical instrument.
