This program encourages reading for meaning.  Early readers work together to "illustrate" a story with sound. Examples of parts of speech are identified and utilized to clarify the nuance of what a story might be expressing. These discoveries are transferred to percussion instruments through the children's decisions about musical dynamics, texture, and rhythm. There's a big finale when the story and music are performed all together! Attendance is limited to 65 people. Tickets will be handed out from the front desk on a first-come, first-served basis starting at 10:00 am. Presented by Sticks and Tones
