Reindeer Tracks – A Christmas Board Game
Here is a Christmas game you can use with several levels. You choose the cards you want to use.
The objective of Reindeer Tracks is to review concepts at various levels including piano keys for beginners, easier key signatures, rhythm names, notes on the grand staff, and easier intervals.
This game is for students at the beginning to late elementary level.
There are a total of 9 pages including:
• 1 page of game instructions
• 1 game board
• 6 pages of question cards
• 1 page of the optional back for the cards
I hope your students enjoy this game!
Susan,
I have never written a comment, but do want to thank you so much for so many wonderful activities!!!! I just happened to need the students to repeat short passages to work on specific things ( like correct notes), and I pulled out the Thanksgiving short game board like this one. I used two game markers and a die and if they played correctly they got to throw the die and move. If they missed, I got a turn. The students loved it, and the repetitions I got out of it made a big difference in our Christmas pieces.
Barbara,
That’s a great way to use a game board! I hope other teachers see this and try it!
Thanks so much for ALL your Christmas games. Crazy time of year with my own kids, never mind trying to get creative on the teaching front as well 🙂
Anyone found any printable vocab cards out there? Just basic grade 1 rudiments. I’ve got a whole lot of typing ahead of me otherwise!
Liz, I am working on sets of cards for games that can be used for all kinds of games and printed on business cards, too. In the meantime, if you look at the post on music vocabulary memory games, you could possible print those out and cut them up. There are 6 pages, each with 8 vocabulary words and symbols. Each page has the word/symbol as well as the definition, so you could use either one for a game and not use the cards you don’t want. They are a little small for flash cards, but I have used them in the past that way. Here is a link to the page that has all the vocabulary memory games. https://susanparadis.com/catalog.php?site=piano-teacher-resources&type=Games§ion=5&level=x&subtype=x&subtype2=x&page=4
Oh bless you…thanks!
Liz, you’re welcome!
Susan,
