- Grand Staff Theory Worksheets - UMT Activity #3 – Ear Training: Write That Melody!
Use the Grand Staff Theory Worksheets to develop a strong foundation in Ear Training by playing “Write That Melody”.
Step #1: Divide the Grand Staff into 2 measures. Add a Time Signature (and a Key Signature if you wish). Identify and write the first note in each measure.
Step #2: The teacher plays a melody while the student listens. The student should not be looking at the piano. Play the melody again.
Step #3: Are you ready? Write That Melody! The student writes the melody, using correct pitch, note values and articulation.
Step #4: To check, the teacher plays the melody again. The student then plays the melody that they wrote on the Grand Staff Theory Worksheets. Listen! Is it the same melody?
UMT Tip: The teacher can write out their melody on the Ultimate Music Theory Whiteboard. Add a Sight Reading element – have the student play the teacher’s melody and then play their own melody. Is it the same melody?
The FREE Music Theory Worksheets can be used to support students of all Learning Styles and in all levels of the Ultimate Music Theory Workbook Series.
