Need a fun way to engage and assess what your students hear as you study about (and play) musical examples from Holst's "Neptune" from The Planets? Use these listening glyphs with a picture of the planet as well as a figure from mythology for who the planet was named after on it to assess what your students hear. Play a recording (not included) and have your students follow the color code key to assess what they hear. Items assessed in this set include:
"Neptune"
♬ strings vs no strings
♬ brass vs no brass
♬ woodwinds vs no woodwinds
♬ singing vs no singing (vocals vs no vocals)
♬ tempo mostly fast vs tempo mostly slow
♬ loud ending vs quiet ending
♬ clarinet vs no clarinet
♬ oboe vs no oboe
♬ harp vs no harp
♬ flute vs no flute
♬ celesta vs no celesta

Make these glyphs part of a listening station, homework, or as a whole class activity.
