Description: Chromatic and diatonic half steps and whole steps (whole tones and semi-tones) get lots of review in this Spring themed deck. Watch your students' confidence grow as they master this concept! Students read the interval, select the corresponding notes on the keyboard graphic, then choose the correct answer. The bonus step of visualizing on the keyboard is a great way to make this concept easier to understand! Extra practice has been provided for the tricky zones around E-F and B-C. Both chromatic and diatonic half steps are included, although those terms are not used in this deck. (There is a RCM5 half and whole step deck in the store if these terms are specifically needed.) Each card has both written and audio instructions. Three teaching cards explain the concepts at the start of each round, followed by 15 randomized cards. Students will play a different game every time. This deck has been optimized for visual, audio, and motor accessibility. Correlates with RCM Levels 1 and 2 (Royal Conservatory of Music.) This is not a product of RCM, but provides extra practice for concepts covered in the Levels 1 and 2 Celebrate Theory workbooks. Great for online or in-person piano lessons, theory classes, exam preparation, band classes, music classes, music lab, take-home activities, homeschooling, and device-based learning.
