What this activity helps teachers do
Keep pupils active in the music
Recognise and name instruments, notice visible features, colour carefully and discuss instrument families, how sounds are made and where each instrument may be heard.
Use a clear teaching route
Pair each sheet with an instrument image or sound example, introduce the correct name and family first, and use a focused listening or labelling question so colouring supports musical learning.
