The String Family

Violin

Viola

Cello

String Bass
 
Last week, our students have studied the string family. They learned that string instruments can be grouped into two categories - orchestra strings and non-orchestra strings. The pictures above are of the 4 main orchestra instruments. The kindergarten and 1st grade students got a big surprise when Gabe Feese and Matt Shepherd stopped by from Music is Me. They brought LOTS of string instruments with them and some of our students even got to play them. I will post pictures in another post, so keep your eyes out for those!
