Numbered Cube





Make a large size cube and label with numbers.  You can use this in several ways.  One example of use is to play name that tune.  Prepare a list ahead of time with numbers on the dice matching the song on your list.

Ask a child to roll the cube. Whichever number is rolled, the pianist plays that number of notes from one of the review songs on the list and the children have to name the song.
If the children cannot guess, the pianist keeps adding a note until the song is recognized. To increase the challenge, I have the pianist play the notes from random places in the song, rather than the beginning.
