One of the things that makes Spanish music so distinct is the use of different instruments in the various genres of music. Using pictures (whether cut out for groups or on a smart board) and various audio clips, allow students to match up the instrument to the sound it makes. Since many of these instruments will be new to them, they are going to have to guess and work together to figure out which instrument goes with each sound. Take up together as a class and see how well each group did.

What a great idea. It only reminds me of how amazing the internet can be for getting resources. To be able to show and share some of these sounds and instruments is just fantastic in so many ways. A good activity would be to have a "show and share" of SOUND, and explain the origins, like you did here. - Zoe
