Race to the Top – A Piano Note ID Game
Make note reading fun with Race to the Top, a simple game that gets students moving and thinking on the keys! Two players (student vs. teacher) race their game pieces from the bottom to the top of the piano by identifying notes correctly.
How to Play:
Each player places a game piece (like a candy or eraser) at the lowest end of the piano.
Students draw a card and move to the nearest matching note on the piano.
Teachers take turns doing the same.
First to reach the top of the piano wins!
Customize by Level:
Beginners use labeled cards (A-G).
Advanced students use staff notes and cards with sharps and flats.
Bonus Practice: Ask students to help identify the teacher’s move for extra note recognition!
Tip: Laminate the cards for long-term use.
Perfect for a quick review at the end of a lesson—no prep, all fun!
