Simple Review Activity: Find the Metronome

This is the easiest review activity I know.  It's always a hit with the kids, and encourages them to sing loudly.  All you need is an electric metronome or a metronome app on a smart phone or other device.  I always have my phone with me with the app on it, which means I can do this activity at a moments notice.  It's perfect for when you have extra time or a substitute.

How to play:

Choose one child to go into the hallway.  Choose another child to hide the running metronome.  Start singing then have the child in the hallway come back in and start searching for the metronome.  The rest of the children try to sing loud enough to cover the sound of the metronome and make it harder to find.  

Sometimes the kids won't know the words very well but will mumble really loud to cover the metronome.  When this happens I stop the kids and give the searching child a good chance to hear the metronome.  This activity can help you find where the kids are struggling with the words.

I also have a freezer meals blog! After my third child was born I felt like I spent all my time either cooking or cleaning the kitchen, so I started doing Once a Month Cooking.  I cook a lot of food every 1 to 3 months.  Then we eat the meals I made from the freezer in between.   It has made my life a lot easier, and I blog about it at A Very Large Bowl.  Check it out!
