Title – Note Name Sparkle

By – Rachel Hansen

Primary Subject – Music

Grade Level – 3-5

Materials:

• Board Staff
  
• Magnetic Noteheads

Procedure:

1. Students stand in a line or semi-circle, where all students can see the board.
2. The teacher places 4-5 noteheads on different lines and spaces on the staff.
3. Students go in a line, naming one note each.
4. When the students run out of notes (the 4 or 5 that were up), the next student in line says “Sparkle” and the following student is “out” and has to sit down.
5. The teacher then places 4-5 different noteheads and the process repeats.
6. If a student guesses the note wrong they sit down and the next student has the opportunity to guess.
7. Last one standing is the winner!

Note:

• You can use this with as many notes as your students know.
• Many other classes use this game too, like spelling, so the kids may already know the game!
