Since winter is just around the corner and in many places already here, I thought I’d point out some seasonal flashcards on the ComposeCreate® website. I use these types of activities while my students are waiting on siblings or during the lesson to reinforce concepts.
Snowmen Note Names–These flashcards drill note names. Print these out on cardstock, then cut the bottom snowball off of the snowman. The student should try to match the bottom of the snowman with the appropriate top of the snowman.
Snowmen Steps and Skips–These flashcards drill steps and skips. Print them out on cardstock, then cut off the bottom of the snowman. The student will try to match the step or skip on the top of the snowman to one of the step or skip bottoms. This one is especially revealing because several of the flashcards have a LH C and and RH D on them, which is a step, but sometimes students mistake as a skip.
If you haven’t explored this part of the site, please visit Wendy’s Piano Studio/Teaching Resources/Flashcards or /Games to find more flashcards and games. Have fun!
Thanks for this post. I haven’t seen it though; I will be checking on it as soon as possible. Such use of flashcards and other relevant games in classroom activities is really fun and interesting that can surely motivate our students. Again, thanks for sharing those creative and useful piano teaching resources. Cheers!
Cute! Who said flashcard games were boring?
