Less than $5 10th Grade Music Games (by date, oldest first)

In this SPEEDY game, your violin students will see a white dot appear on one of the violin strings (as shown on the powerpoint) corresponding within a tape (first finger, second, third, and so on)

They will then see a multiple choice selection of note names (A, C#, F#, etc) and have to guess which not appears on the white dot -- AS FAST AS THEY CAN!

Advance the slide to show the correct answer!

Towards the end of the presentation, the multiple choice disappears and there will be just the white dot on the violin string and the student will have to guess

Of course... as fast as they can

You can do it team vs team, side vs side, or even have them rally it up and try to name as many in a specific amount of time. Have a great time with this!

Reviewing the four families of instruments with your kids? This may be the game format you're looking for! An authentic jeopardy game board with categories for Brass, Percussion, Woodwinds, and Strings on the title slide. Students can elect to pick $200, $400, $600, $800, or $1000 answers. After clicking on the amount, the answer will appear on the next slide. A text answer will first be visible, but if you advance the animation, the instrument will enter the slide if your kids need a hint. Students (keeping in true Jeopardy! fashion) can answer in the form of a question "What is a Bassoon?" "What is a Trumpet?" "What is the Timpani?" After the money is awarded (You can split sides of your class, boys vs girls, class vs class, however you want it!), there is a link in the bottom right hand corner to go back to the title screen and game board. After extracting the ZIP file, make sure to install the Jeopardy! font included, or else you'll see random characters all over -- not good eats!
