The purpose of this study is to clarify the continuity between living experience and expression in music class using local folk music as educational materials with a focus on physical activities. Firstly, we organized the positioning of physical activities in this study, with reference to "Experience and Nature" by Dewey as prior research on "quality". Then, we planned and practiced an instrumental music class for the fourth-grade elementary students using "Danjiri-bayashi", a local folk musical piece of Osaka Prefecture, and analyzed it with a focus on the relation between the physical activities and instrumental musical expressions by the students. Lastly, we examined the influence of physical activities on the continuity between life experience and expression. As a result of our practical analysis, it was observed that the qualities received by the children through their physical activities in their past living experiences and the qualities newly received in their learning on the foundation of their living experiences were embodied and exhibited in their musical expressions in continuity. This result has revealed that the continuity between students' living experiences and expressions in a music class using local folk music as educational materials can be perceived in their reception and embodiment of qualities, and that physical activities play the role of enhancing such continuity. Moreover, we found the following two effects of physical activities. Physical activities evoke the qualities unconsciously received by children in their life experiences, and let them exhibit their individual sensitivity bringing out their potential to inherit their culture with reconstruction.
