Music THEORY Escape Room - - ALL DIGITAL - - The Mystery of the Music Room

This Escape Room is an all-in-one lesson to review your students on basic music theory in a fun and engaging way. Simply share the google form link with students and they are ready to go! This quick activity should take 10-30 minutes depending on student's ages (4th-6th grade) and prior knowledge. Complete in small groups, individual or as a class working as one team.

*** Corresponds to our Music Theory Curriculum - Unit 1

9 puzzles including the topics like:

• staff & clefs
• measures & bar lines
• lines & spaces (treble & bass clef)
• note names (treble & bass clef)
• ledger lines (treble & bass clef)
• Supplemental page for ALTO clef can be printed or digitally delivered to students
• quarter notes/rests
• half notes/rests
• whole notes/rests
• eighth notes/rests
• flags & beams
• rhythm pyramid
• ties

The entire activity is within a Google form (will be delivered by TPT to your Google Drive) and the students will need internet access.

Completion time should be 10-30 minutes depending on age, number of students in a team and the amount of clues (if any) that the teacher might give. This activity is also perfect for a truly beneficial lesson with a substitute teacher and can work for band, choir, orchestra or general music. (Bass & treble clef are included in the google form, alto clef is included in a supplemental sheet that can be printed/delivered digitally so violists can fully participate.)

If you are not familiar with Google Forms, please read the DIRECTIONS & HELPFUL TIPS before opening the form so you will know how to use the resource. The Directions & Helpful Tips should be in the google folder that TPT shares with you after purchase.
