I like to play basketball a lot. So I decided
to make something with a basketball. I believe it
belongs to the percussion family. It's a basketball
with elastic around the middle and bells glued on
the elastic. The volume is soft. The tone quality
is a soothing sound.
The materials I used were a basketball,
elastic, glue, and bells. I found them downstairs
in my house. The bells have a jingle sound.
I got the ball and cleaned it up. Then I put
the elastic on the basketball. Next I glued the
elastic. Then I glued the bells on the elastic. My
mom helped me with the glue and with the bells. We
had a little trouble with the glue and putting it
on the ball.
I can bounce or shake my instrument. I really
like the different sounds. I like it because it's
lots of fun. I learned that making an instrument
can be pretty difficult sometimes and lots of fun
too.
