In my opinion, the difference between music and noise is the sounds. Noise sounds more disorganized, and unemotional, in a sense. Music, when practiced, sounds beautiful, and usually carries the message of the piece that is being played.
2. What are some examples of musical instruments? How does each one make sound?
Musical Instruments include the violin, guitar, flute, cello, trombone, trumpets, etc..
Each instrument makes sound in a different way. Some instruments must be tuned to make
good sounds. Other instruments such as trumpets or a flute require you to blow air into it to play music. The violin uses the bow to play its strings.
3. How does sound travel?
I believe sound travels through sound waves that come from humans speaking, playing instruments, or anything of that nature. I'm not 100% sure, though.

Reflection Questions:
1. Why do instruments come in different sizes?
I believe that instruments come in different sizes because they all produce different sounds and noises, and vary in size because of their different mechanics in order for them to produce a original sound.
2. How are woodwind instruments different from brass instruments?
Woodwind instruments are different from brass instruments, because woodwind instruments are usually made of wood, brass instruments are mainly made out of metal. Another difference, is woodwind instruments mainly rely on air flow, and the use of keys, while brass instruments rely on altering flow of air when playing the instrument.
3. What instrument family should the piano be in? Why?
The piano should belong in the string instrument category, because inside of the piano, strings help to make the sounds it produces.
4. Why is it good that we have instruments that make sounds in different ways?
I believe that it is good to have instruments with different sounds, so they can make different sounds and be original. Another reason in my opinion, is so we can have new sounds by playing certain instruments together.

Tiffany, great work here! Just be careful not to put a comma before words like 'because' or 'is'. Great writing otherwise! 10/10
