Music Games and Activities

I have been thinking about making some music products for awhile now, but it has been on the back burner due to other more immediate needs. Last week my daughter asked me if I could create a music quest with some task cards for her general music classes in middle school. She generated some trivia questions and information that she wanted for the cards and I created them. While waiting for her to come up with her material, I created some other products, including a primary version of Music Quest.

These quests include several games that can be played in groups, with partners, or as center activities.

In primary classes, many rhythm instruments are used for creating music. Rhythm and notation are also introduced in later grades. I have used these concepts to create some matching games for the primary and early intermediate classes.

If you are looking for some fun activities for the music classroom, or if you teach your own music and would like some activities to engage your students, check these out.
