1. Students in the core 4th grade group will explore, learn about, and build dulcimers with the goal being discovering the correlation between science and sound. 2. Students in grade K-3 will be exposed to and be able to explore the vast rhythm instruments that are available today through an instrumental petting zoo. 3. All students and community members will gain a better understanding of the connection between music, sound, and science.
