Hello again!
Surprise! I didn't forget! I was just scared that my ideas aren't good enough. And well, I still am, but I'm going to post something anyway.
As an avid pinner I am always gleaning ideas off of my most followed and treasured peers in Music Education. Some have published books that I use, some are complete strangers. Regardless I will probably never meet this wonderful and inspiring people, and I'm unlikely to ever muster the courage to strike up a converstation with them.
One such pinner/blog is pianimation.com. I found this fun game there and looked into it to see if I could take a shortcut and just press "download." Well, maybe I could but unfortunately, all the levels used the grand staff, intervals, and key identifictaion. I don't have a need for any of those, so I made my own.
I made a deck for just treble clef with no ledger lines. Not because I avoid teaching them, but I wanted to use this for several grade levels and my 2nd graders are not ready for ledger lines. Also, making these was a wee bit difficult and I wanted to save myself the hassle. I can always make a ledger lines sheet later.
Anyway, I made it 3 pages long with every note in there at least twice. I printed them off in one color with the title "Play this note" and then I changed that to say "Name this note" and printed it in a different color. If you have lovely expensive cardstock, use that. If you have a laminator I recommend that as well or you can combine the two! A fortress of a card!
I hope this will be useful to someone, likely though, not a soul even reads my little rookie blog. No biggie. I'm happy being me.
Now to figure out how to post documents....
