Earth group loves to make sounds with with their feet, hands, and their mouths! Since all children love cause and effect, so we explored what we he do to cause the macaroni, stones, and marbles to jump and what is the sound effect? Cause and effect is how children learn to control and interact with their environment, and understanding cause and effect helps develop problem solving skills. With that in mind, we made drum today, to give a visual understanding of how sound is created when they tap the drum.
But where does sound come from? We started by feeling the vibration in our throats when we sing or talk. Connor noticed that "it moves a lot" when he shouts and sings.

| Playing drums and listening to the different sounds that macaroni, rocks, and marbles make. Which one jumps the most? The macaroni!!! |

| Francine enjoys turing macaroni into jumping beans! But she notes that it's hard to make the rocks and marbles jump off the drum. |
