This cute worksheet is to help pupils recognise their intervals (unison, 2nds, 3rds, 4ths and 5ths). Something cute is hiding in the grid and pupils will need to use the correct colours to find out what it is!

Pupils are to colour in the hearts which are linked to the correct piano keys.

I use this with my beginner pupils to help reinforce finger numbers and hand/finger shape. The idea is that they follow the activities in order, creatively improvising thinking about the badger’s activity and the graphic symbols shown. I encourage them to use the whole piano and to vary their tempo and dynamics.

I use MTB for exams so that means lots of audio and video recordings. It’s important to let people know this is happening so here’s the poster I use.
