Chromatic Ball Song

Activity Instructions:

A chromatic scale is a scale where every half step is played. (All of the white and black keys on the piano). 

Pass out balls and have children practice tapping, rolling from their toes to their head and back down again, and bouncing on their booties. Then play song and follow motions.
