Rainbow Connection Matching Game

Students will match the term in the cloud (on the left side) with the symbol on the rainbow (on the right side). Correct matches will show the rainbow connecting the term with the symbol.
There are 4 cards per sheet, but the sheet should be printed whole. Printing instructions are included in the file.

A fun, spring (and music!) inspired BINGO style activity. Students color in a box for each completed activity. Five in a row earns a "finish," but you can encourage your group to complete the whole page or as many as they would like. Who can get the most?
This would work well as a Spring Break take-home activity. Listening to classical pieces by composers are included as an activity box, as well as nature-related finds, outdoor fun, and sharing a song with someone.
Each sheet has the same basic layout with some variations. Print copies of the same "board" or pass out slightly different versions for everyone to mix it up.
► We know you'll love helping students create meaningful connections to classical music, so we are happy to share these free listening activities with you today!
Elements of Music: Vocabulary Mystery Word Match
By MsNerdWood
Are you ready to introduce (or reintroduce-let’s face it, we all know they forget from year to year) your students to the captivating world of the Elements of Music? Then you’ll enjoy the Elements of Music Vocabulary Mystery Word Match Activity! This engaging lesson is designed to help students familiarize themselves with some essential music vocabulary associated with the elements of music in a fun and interactive way. We all know that students generally love games so they’ll enjoy the gamification of this activity. As they match vocabulary words with their definitions, they’ll discover some letters that they will need to unscramble to find a mystery word.
Activity Overview:
In this activity, students will match vocabulary words to their corresponding definitions related to the elements of music. Each correct match will reveal a letter, allowing students to unscramble and discover the mystery word. This interactive feature adds an extra layer of excitement and challenges to the vocabulary learning experience.
Included in this Activity:
With this activity you will get an interactive worksheet with some words related to the elements of music (e.g., Elements of Music, Duration, Pitch, Dynamics, Timbre, Texture/Harmony, Form and Tempo) and the corresponding definitions and explanations for each mystery word.
When students have completed and found the mystery word, you can provide them with a blank template and have them find additional words related to the elements of music and their corresponding definitions so that they can create their own. You can use this for earlier finishers, as an extension activity or to dig a little deeper for everyone into the elements of music.
