How does it look like what I hear?

Game description synchronously:
The teacher chooses 3 or four pieces of music that are as contrasting as possible. Later he reproduces them and asks the students to draw a picture on a piece of paper of the feeling that said music evokes in them or the first image that comes to their minds when they listen to this type of music.
Then the students present the drawings they have made to their classmates and discuss why they made the drawing and what sensations the music produced in them.
For the second part of the game he can ask the students to choose four songs; one that they listen to when they are very happy, another when they are sad, another when they feel anger or anger and another when they feel lonely.

Recommendations for the teacher:
