St Barnabas Sound Map 03 (Year 1)

The Year 1 class at St Barnabas were given a talk about active listening, and the difference between active and passive listening.

They were then shown a Sound Map of the World in which you can hear recorded sounds from around the globe. We listened to sounds (recordings) from various places in the world, and the pupils described what they could hear. Lastly, the pupils were then sent out in small groups to capture sounds with hand-held recording devices, with the idea of collecting material for their own Sound Map of St Barnabas School.

Click on the map pointers to hear where the sounds were recorded. Or play from the SoundCloud list below.

From looking at frogs, listening to taps, and jumping off steps the children seemed to be lost in a world of sound...I think the railings are my favourite!




Here are the sounds in a SoundCloud list:
