LIST OF GAMES

Section 1: games where teacher choose five notes at the start which then appear in a random order in the question cards

• Don’t Wake Lenny: collect as many precious gems as you dare – but don’t wake Lenny the sleeping lion! A leaderboard game.
• Fruit Ninja: fly the little watermelon to safety and avoid the fruit ninjas. A game of perfect timing!
• Garbage Monsters: are you brave enough to turn over the next monster bin? Collect points in this leaderboard game – just don’t turn over a red monster!

Section 2: a collection of games where teachers can choose any notes in each question card by dragging them up or down the stave

• The King and the Thief: creep through the castle corridor reclaiming the treasure King John stole – but don’t wake up the dozing Knights
• Supercow: fly Sally the Supercow through the obstacles and complete her flight training. Just try not to give her a headache! A leaderboard game.
• Emoji Lab: score enough points in the questions round to enter the lab and create your own emoji!

Section 3: these games include some simple rhythms in time signatures of 2, 3 or 4 beats in a bar (uses 1, 2, 3 and 4 beat notes). Drag the note values on to the stave in any position you wish.

• Don’t Catch The Penguins: the title says it all! Collect as many gems as possible but watch out for those sliding penguins.
• Basketball: shoot some hoops to score points. The longer you wait the more points you score – but don’t wait too long or the timer runs out!
