On this rainy day, we donned our boots and rain coats and set out on a Listening Walk. We were going to discover new sounds, this time at the big school. The children crept along quietly, searching for sounds. When we heard a sound, we would stop, listen and look.
We discovered students working on the scaffolding above the stage, and students practicing their instruments. Then Jason, the Lower School Music teacher, invited us in to hear the 5th graders play their recorders. The Turtles were mesmerized. After that, the Turtles asked about the many instruments in the room, and Jason gave each of us mallets to play percussion with.
After a very wet, puddle-jumping walk back, we peeled off our wet clothes and boots and enjoyed some of our favorite stories.
