How the music words split by difficulty
Easy asks for 15 words of 3 to 6 letters and this list has 35, for example ANTHEM, HUM and VIOLIN.
Medium asks for 18 words of 5 to 9 letters and this list has 44, for example ACCORDION, INTERLUDE and XYLOPHONE.
Hard asks for 20 words of 7 to 12 letters and this list has 34, for example AMPLIFIER, METRONOME and UKULELE.
A way to use the music word scramble
Once a word is solved, students sort it into instrument, musical term or performance. For the instruments, play a short recording so the class hears what a PICCOLO or a TROMBONE sounds like.
