A Listening Collage
You need magazines, glue, large sheets of paper and safe scissors The children all create a picture of what they heard on the listening walk by cutting out and sticking on pictures they have found or drawn eg dog pictures, real leaves, rice or lentils to represent gravel.
I like the idea of this being a random representation of sounds, a reminder of a happy sound experience rather than a score to be followed as a timeline.
The Listening Walk
