Music Theory Games
Students learn so much through play, so why not find new ways to keep lessons fun and enjoyable?
If a concept is difficult to understand, instead of repeatedly working through the issue, we utilize over 300 music theory games and off-the-bench activities through Vibrant Music Teaching to keep students engaged in their lessons.
More Movement - Off-the-bench activities help kids re-engage their brains. And the younger we are, the more often we need to do that.
More Fun – Having FUN keeps students engaged, attentive and staying “in the moment”, which will help them retain what they are learning. How much are you actually learning when you're bored?
Different Perspectives - Reinforcing the theory homework with games leads to a deeper understanding of the concepts. The information then becomes more durable and flexible to be re-used in other contexts.
Apps & Technology
The use of Apps and Technology can be a key way to engage students of all levels in their practicing at home and overall musical growth. Apps can also provide opportunities for students to play musical games that work on musical concepts while away from the piano.
In addition to musical back-tracks for the method books, the apps listed below assist students in building their musicianship skills, such as: grand staff-recognition, sight-reading, ear-training, rhythms, theory, and keeping a steady beat.
Apps can engage students in their practicing at home by recording themselves playing their pieces, composing music, improvising and practicing scales to back-tracks, and in creating a "choice wheel" for their practice strategies!
