How to play Penguin Music Note Match
To play Penguin Music Note Match, simply ask students to match the note name with the corresponding staff picture. Be sure to only give your student the notes that they know. Plus, remember that smaller quantities of matching cards are more fun for younger students.
Once the student has correctly matched all the Penguin Music Note Match cards, you can use a stopwatch to time them. Challenge the student to beat their time the next time they play.

For more fun, purchase 2 sets of these penguins at Amazon. Then choose 7 Penguin Music Note Match cards and place one penguin (of different colors) on each card. Ask students to place a penguin of the same color on the correct key.

Great! Ordered penguins & laminated the flash cards. Students and I are enjoying the activity. We are finding so many ways to use w/keyboard and without! Thank you, Wendy.

So excited to use these. I ordered the penguin erasers and will be using them for my summer lessons. Thanks for making fun music ideas!

I’m still discovering ways to use this game. Older kids love to race the clock, younger students love putting the penguin erasers on the keys using the letter cards…I’m hoping to get older elementary students to race using the pengaloo game and the trickier ledger line notes.
Appreciate the creativity Wendy!
