Welcome: Save the Orchestra!
Description: This WebQuest was created to help students understand that all four instrument families, woodwinds, brass, strings, and percussion, play very important roles in the orchestra. Students will use a list of prescreened websites to research the four families and the instruments that belong in each family. They will review the characteristics of each instrument family and why instruments belong in each family. Students will listen to musical examples and describe which instruments/families are playing melody, accompaniment, etc. They will then create a PowerPoint presentation talking about the importance of each family and persuading the “people in charge of the orchestra” not to eliminate one of the instrument families from the orchestra.
