Match the Melody 1 is the prequel to Match the Melody 2. This collection focuses on the easy melody patterns: so-mi, la-so-mi, so-mi-do, mi-re-do, and la-so-mi-do. Every pattern has three levels of difficulty which will help build skills, comprehension, and confidence. This resource is sequenced to teach note-reading and solfege (movable do). By matching the melody to the audio tracks, students are learning to recognize melody shape and intervals.

This resource is an excellent tool for training students' aural skills. The teacher guide includes classroom ideas, teacher directions, and answer keys. Your students will love this fun, and interactive resource. Included on the disk are projectable PDF/PPTs for every level, projectable Assessment PDF/PPTs, and assessment worksheets.
