Do You Hear What I Hear? - This listening sheet is designed to be used in a listening center. Choose any holiday music you wish for this activity. This is a great station to add music for Hanukkah and Kwanzaa.

Snow Your Notes Card Game- Similar to "Go Fish" this card game encourages reading treble clef pitches.

Frozen Instrument Families- Students find instrument names in a puzzle (which reinforces the correct spelling) and then group them (or bundle them up!) by families.

Trim the Tree - Identifying pitch names by coloring a Christmas tree is a fun way to reinforce this basic skill.

Christmas Counts - This worksheet requires students to draw notes that match the syllables in holiday pictures and then create their own patterns.

Snowman Dance- Use pictures of dancing snowmen, students are challenged to choreograph an original dance. You pick the music that you want them to work with and let their imaginations do the rest.
