Game Time!

Students love games! This gameboard together with the cards teach several music concepts

The picture shows my effort in reinforcing the concept on "intervals" and "half-steps". The players (could be just teacher and student) start their game pieces on "Home". Two dices are rolled and the player take turns to move their games pieces to the next space by counting the number of half-steps (or whole steps) determined by the dices. Then the play tries to answer the question on the card. A correct answer allows the player to stay on the new space on the board. Otherwise, s/he must to go back to previous position. There corner spaces are tricky. They could be "miss a turn" or "take 2 turns". The first player to reach "Home" again wins the game. Try it!
