How to Play Scarecrow Scores Music Game Teaching Music Scores

In essence, Scarecrow Scores is a very easy game to play.

You roll a die and move your crow game piece forward.

The difficulty lies in knowing how to read the actual score (which, we include a move guide in case you as the teacher need a refresher).

If the student rolls a 3, they move forward 3 measures. If they roll a 6, they move forward 6 measures.

If they reach a repeat sign, they have to return to the beginning (or to a forward-facing repeat sign, if you added that).

Whoever reaches the final bar line first wins!

There are literally dozens of ways to play this game and your students will never be confused with score reading again!

There are 8 crow game pieces, so you can easily play Scarecrow Scores with up to 8 players.

Each player must navigate through the score and whoever reaches the final bar line first wins.

To make gameplay slightly faster, give each player their own die and have them roll at the same time.

This is a great game to play with group lessons because your students will make SURE that their opponents are following all the markings of the score and going backward as needed!

Scarecrow Scores is easily played with 2 students or 8.
