On a page of music, you can find many different types of symbols from notes to letters.

In a song, letters like p, mp, pp, f, mf, and ff are used to explain whether a piece should be loud or soft.

These letters are called “dynamics.” See the dynamic chart below.

ACTIVITY

1. Make a list of 4-6 of your favorite toys, games, devices, or household items.

2. Match each one to a dynamics. Would your stuffed animal be soft or loud? Would your device be loud or soft? (My popcorn popper is mp-medium soft)

3. Take a picture and send it to Ms Perryman: eperryman@nbtschools.org.

4. Have fun!
