Invented Instruments

Here are the invented instruments from this year's 6th graders. Once again I was blown away by the creativity of some of my students! They are sorted into aerophones, idiophones, chordophones, and membranophones. Instruments are required to be homemade, make 3 or more pitches, and be sturdy, decorated, and "finished" looking. Students also composed a sound piece to be performed on their instrument using iconic notation.
