Less than $5 Other (Music) Games (by date, oldest first)

Everyone, and I mean everyone, loves a fun and quick game of Tic-Tac-Toe! And I'm willing to bet every teacher loves a fun and quick way to review concepts with their students. This resource is a perfect combination of both!

Tic-Tac-Key is NO PREP printable game set that you can use with students in private lessons, group lessons, and piano classes! This particular set uses the set of F, G, A, and B keys.

Gameplay is easy!

1. Select one of the pages to use with your students.
2. Players will choose one of the given key to play rather than Xs and Os. (Ex: players can choose F or G on the first page). 
3. Students will play like normal Tic-Tac-Toe using a pencil or other writing utensil. Just like Tic-Tac-Toe, three in a Row Wins!
4. On the Four-Game page, best three out of four wins!

And game assembly is even easier! This resource is a no-prep, ready to go game to print and play with your students! However, if you’d like to reuse pages, you are more than welcome to print on thicker paper and/or laminate pages for durability and longevity.

The game pages are solely in black and white, so you can print on colored paper to make the game pop a little more, OR to separate the different games out. I would suggest laminating the Big Game pages so you can use dry-erase markers with them. You can also use the Big Game pages with your younger students.

Included in this set are the following 16 pages:

1. F and G Big Game Page
2. F and G 4 Game Page
3. F and A Big Game Page
4. F and A 4 Game Page
5. F and B Big Game Page
6. F and B 4 Game Page
7. G and A Big Game Page
8. G and A 4 Game Page

Test your student's luck by playing the Lucky Clovers matching game. Just like a regular matching game, the object is to match a term to its appropriate symbol. The term is on one half of the clover, and the symbol is on the other half. Lucky Clovers can also be used as a memory game as well. Since the document is mostly black and white, I highly suggest these sheets be printed on green paper - copy paper or cardstock and then laminated for durability.

These puzzles are a great way for students to reinforce their understanding of enharmonic pitches.

The object of the game is to match the 3 pitch names with the corresponding key on the piano keys. Each note has its own set of 4 puzzles pieces – 12 sets total. The only exception is GB/Ab, which has two pitch names and two keyboards.

This set maybe printed on white printer paper, but I suggest printing on cardstock and laminating for durability. To make the puzzle pieces look nice on the back, I have included a background on the last page – but this is totally optional. For different level of game play, print out the pieces on 4 different colors of paper, and have the students connect the puzzle by colors.

Just in time for St. Patricks Day, this themed matching game allows your little piano stars to match basic terms and symbols on a rainbow! 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.

The follow-up to "Rhythm Wind Up and PITCH! and MELODY Wind Up and PITCH!"
______________________________________

This one will get the kids on their edge of their seats!

You will need 1 thing for this particular game:

• A sticky suction cup ball (or maybe a soft squishy ball)

The students will see an instrument at the bottom of their screen and memorize the timbre of the instrument (should know beforehand what it is and how it sounds!) They will then hear a musical example of an endless loop of orchestral and band instruments playing in all different ranges from low to high (Teacher will click the speaker icon to play)

Take a listen...

....

....

One of the instruments will be the instrument that is on the screen. AS SOON AS THEY HEAR THAT INSTRUMENT, they throw their suction cup ball at the target. The first kid who gets it correct is the winner (and make sure you advance the slide to make the target turn green) :)

Obviously, we cannot play this as a class because of

1. The amount of suction cup balls tossed at the screen would be insane

2. Team A v Team B would be a bit more competitive and only two balls would be launched at once

If you don't have a whiteboard/projection screen, you can alternatively have the students raise their hand when they hear it and choose the kid who has their hand up the fastest.

Have a great time with this fast paced game!

A twist on the "Poison Pattern" game we all know and love, Boom-ong us, will have students all have 1 (or 2 to make it a little more engaging!) boomwhackers.

They will be shown a pattern of 3 or 4 boomwhackers that will be known as the

imposter. The boomwhackers, from left to right, will be played as quarter notes one by one. Then, students will play an assortment of boomwhacker notes one by one on the following slides.

If the IMPOSTER Boomwhacker melody is shown, do not play it! If the students play it (either 1 note, or the entire melody), they will receive a strike. Play the game until all the students receive 3 strikes (or 5 strikes if you wish) as a class or until they get to the end.

There is a countdown meter on the bottom to show the class how many rounds they have to complete before the end. If they finish it without using all 3 of their strikes, they win!

Play by itself, with you accompanying, or with the background drum beats provided (tempos in the 80s to 110s)

Have a great time with this!

RHYTHM FOUR CORNERS!

· To play Four Corners, ensure all students understand quarter notes, eighth note pairs, half notes, and quarter rests.

· Number each side of the room 1, 2, 3, and 4 (or alternatively, color code it green, blue, red, or purple with floor tape)

· They will hear a 9 second timer. Students will have a chance to walk to one of four corners and stay there for the duration of the round.

· On the next slide, the rhythms will appear in each corner and you will play back one of four the rhythms (provided on the Teacher Guide powerpoint). You can use that or you can play a rhythm of your choice (up to you!)

· The students will have to guess which rhythm the teacher played by showing it with their fingers (1, 2, 3, or 4)

· The teacher then reveals to the students which rhythm it was (#1, #2, #3 or #4) and the students who are in that corner are OUT!

· Keep repeating until no kids are left!

Included are 18 examples (you can switch it up each time and do different rhythms each time), the teacher guide, the 9 second timer embedded in the powerpoint file, and instructions

Get ready to Boom it up with your Boomwhackers in this new game that will get your kids engaged from minute 0!

In BoomBastic Rhythm Remix, students will all receive Boomwhackers (either 1 or 2, at the teachers discretion). They will see a series of notes on the bottom of the staff (F space) and the top of the staff (E space).

The notes on the bottom of the staff are designed to be played on the ground (either at an angle, perpendicular, however you choose). The notes on the top of the staff are designed to be played on their hand in the air.

If the entire class plays the rhythm correctly (on the correct area, air or ground), they receive 50 points as you advance the slide onto the next rhythm!

There are 6 rounds

Round 1 - Quarter Notes with Air and Ground signs

Round 2 - Quarter Notes
Round 3 - Eighth Note Pairs

Round 4 - Quarter Note Rests
Round 5 - Adding in playing on the knee on lap (A space with the "Knee" sign)

Round 6 - Continuation

The game is over at 3000 points -- congrats!

I like to play this with background music at around 90-100bpm for some of my older grades and give them a 4 count cue to play the rhythm. The teacher decides the level of mastery before advancing onto the next slide.

Have a great time with this and BOOM IT UP!

Want to engage your competitive 4th and 5th graders (and even some younger grades) towards the end of the year (or any time of year for that matter?) Try on this brand new game "Boom in a FLASH"

In "Boom in a FLASH", students will see one Boomwhacker color appear on the screen (PowerPoint presentation). The student who is holding that Boomwhacker must play the note (on the ground, hand, elbow, desk, whatever have you!), and then they automatically advance to the next slide...

... to another color!

Keep it going, keep reading because... they're being timed! They will have 30 seconds to amass as many notes as they can (timer included) before the time runs out and they look at their high score (which is kept below).

There are 4 "50" score levels in this presentation. All you do as a teacher is start the clock, start the presentation, and manually press the "next slide" button to advance each time they get it correct. Tally up the points at the end for the high score!

You can play this....

• As a grade level (Class vs Class vs Class vs Class vs Class)
• Side A vs Side B
• Boys vs Girls
• Or however you wish!

It sure gets these kids paying attention (because they're held accountable for playing their note when their color is up!).

A game that will keep your 4th and 5th graders entertained, engaged, and competitively charged, here's INSTRUMENT IMPOSTER inspired by "Among Us"!

In Instrument Imposter, you will see 2 or 3 "crewmates" assigned with different woodwind, brass, percussion, or string instruments

A musical example will be played where all of the crewmates will play their assigned their instruments (either separated or together).

During the example, You, along with your students, will soon find out that the one of the instruments was the the wrong instrument played (the FLUTE crewmate shown actually played the CLARINET... or maybe the SNARE DRUM crewmate played the XYLOPHONE)

Your task is to decide which crewmate is the IMPOSTER by selecting the one crewmate instrumentalist who didn't play the correct instrumenr). Advance the slide and check your answer and go through the rounds!

Included in this resource are

• Mp3 examples embedded in each question
• A printout where you can replicate and cut out cards (if you want the students to place on the floor or hold up to show which one was the imposter)
• 3 levels of rhythms with 2 and 3 imposters (last one is a duet!) :)

Have a terrific time with this while your kids study timbre and the instrument families!
