If you're working on melodic contours, high and low, and direction, this may be for you!

Play these melodies on a piano, clarinet, slide whistle, however you wish! Then, ask the students to place the card which they think best resembled the melody you played.

The image files can be put into a powerpoint as well and you can us it as an answer key after you play the melodic example.
