The movement of rain is so alive as it dances down windowpanes and drains. It is such a useful theme for students as we all encounter the sensation of rain. A variety of different sound qualities live in the motion of rain, from the roar of thunder to the first delicate drop. In this activity, Bethany begins with the exploration of rain sounds, listening to the rhyme, playing with the words, transferring the rhythm to the body, and later shifting ideas to musical instruments.
