LID Today: Musical Instruments

Today LID in the Library featured MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS! It was a fun time to explore the connections between musical instruments and other LID topics.  For instance, students made connections between muscial instruments, wood, glass and even storms!    Students had time to explore a great number of musical instruments.  The thunder tube was by far the favourite!  Students explored sites where they can create their own musical instruments.  These websites include:
