Sound Travels #4: Three Billy Goats Gruff


How sounds are experienced.
How do we experience sound?

The Water Group really enjoyed dramatizing the Norwegian fairy tale, Three Billy Goats Gruff. They experimented with the voices for the different characters in the story. They felt their voice should be small and soft when saying Little Goats Gruff's lines and rough and loud for the troll (because he is scary). I showed the children parts of Peter and the Wolf and explained how the characters are represented by different instruments. Inspired by the play the children added drum sounds to the their dramatization of Three Billy Goats Gruff and felt confident and excited to perform in front of all the other children.
