Students' hobbies, pets, home activities, and play provide ample material for fashioning a neat title, plot, and text. Divide the class into groups and give each group a chance to think out an idea. Once the idea has been developed, the group should interpret it using their sound sources. As the sound interpretations and ideas are displayed for the class, try to thread them together into a complete story. Record the presentation on your cassette in its entirety and then write down the story and corresponding sounds as they are played back.
Sound notation can be simple, utilizing graphic symbols which indicate when sounds are to be played.
As many members of the class as possible should participate. While it certainly is ideal to have a realistic and accurate portrayal of the text, it is more important to involve a majority of class members. This activity, because of its nature, allows students who may not be involved at other times to participate with the group as equal contributors. The interaction value alone is reason enough for including song enhancement on a regular basis. Creativity and interest generated will amply suffice as a final educational goal.
