Music / Levels 1 and 2 / Explore and Express Ideas
Content description
Use imagination and experimentation to explore musical ideas using voice, movement, instruments and body percussion
  1. improvising short pitch and rhythm patterns using voice and instruments
  2. using voice and body percussion to experiment with the elements of music and create contrasting musical ideas, for example, noise and silence, faster and slower, longer and shorter, higher and lower, louder and softer, happy and sad
  3. recording music ideas using technologies and graphic notation
  4. exploring contrasting tone colours on the same instrument, for example, scraping and hitting a drum, using hands and different beaters
  5. using listening as a starting point for exploration, for example, discussing how other performers use loud and soft or identifying ideas that could be used in compositions
