This product is based on the popular matching card game. Each pair of cards will have one symbol which matches - the players have to spot it and say what it is! With an added twist in this version, the player can only keep the cards they “spotted and matched” if they can also define the musical sign or symbol - so they will be revising their musical literacy without even realising!

Save time and money - print and laminate these cards once and use them in a multitude of ways in your music classes! Ideal for time-fillers, fast finishers, centers, revision, end-of-year fun and more. If you teach multiple classes (general music, theory, appreciation…) or multiple year groups, you will LOVE that these cards can be used in different settings. I am a big fan of games that students can play in pairs or small groups! It’s great for their self esteem and social skills.

UPDATED to include USA and UK terms (whole note/semibreve, staff/stave etc).
