Description

This is THE activity to leave for a sub!

– educational

– FUN

– will keep all your kids engaged!

– easy to run with as little or as much tech as you need.

– multiple ways to play – individuals and teams both work!

This huge list of Italian composers and pasta (52 in all) will keep even you guessing!

This game is part of my Music or Not. A set of 5 games for your sub tub!

My best seller is now newly updated to give you the best! You’ve been asking! Now:
– Editable so you can add pictures.

– Includes information about each composer. (Most pictures provided).

– Includes old version if that is your favorite!

– Older kid-friendly in new darker shades.

*There are a few composers that do not have pictures because they either don’t exist, or the composers are still living and pictures are under copyright. Add them yourself with the new editable version! This game does not contain any pictures of the pasta for copyright reasons.

Three print options for the game cards.

Here are some ideas for using the game:

• Emergency sub plans for all ages (Even little ones can have fun with this!)

• Perfect because your sub does not have to be a music person.

• Open House Activity (This is the reason I created this game. My school was having a “Strega Nona” themed open house, and was inspired after seeing an online quiz.. I thought that doing this as a quick game while people walked in and out would be fun since I share my space.)

• End of class reward. My 5-8 general music students beg to play this game!

• Game Day

• Game at the end of a composer unit

• Cross-Cultural Activity about Italy

  1. Janelle S. –

    Love this! I was looking for something to use as “bell work” with my middle school students. I will definitely be using this for a few days and leaving it in my sub tub!

    • Shelley –

      So happy you like it! My MS kids loved that it was something different for them to do. I have to not play it with them so I don’t wear out the novelty! I hope yours like it as much as mine do!

  2. Nancy O. –

    This will be fun to use with my older classes! Thanks!

    • Shelley –

      I’m glad you like it! My students really enjoy trying to remember if they have eaten it or not!

    My students had great fun with this and it was easy for my sub to do.

    • Shelley –

      Great!! I’m glad your kids liked it! I did think it was a great activity for subs since it doesn’t HAVE to use the slides if they can’t figure the technology in the room out!

  7. Pitch Publications –

    This is perfect for a sub! Also for me! Though I missed a couple questions myself! (Yikes!) 🙂

  8. Ginny’s Music Space –

  22. Meghan F. –

    This is a GREAT end of year ‘filler’ activity: as an added bonus, my 3rd and 4th graders did a food themed spring program this year, including “The Pasta Song” from Music K-8! (They now think they are pros on pastas and composers and take it very seriously when they are wrong). Thanks!

  23. Katy Steklac –

    This was a great way to spend the class while half of my students were gone on a field trip!

    What a fun idea! I’m starting a unit that I call “Back to Rock” and this will be a fun game to get them thinking….a “sprinkle” activity….and it will be fun to pull out again if and when I need a sub in the future for sure.

    same as “Opera or Cheese” – I’m so excited to use this with my choir kids this fall! They loved the original that floated around social media, so they will be thrilled to have a more extended version to play when we have down time. Lots of well-thought out options for presenting it, whether you have power point, a smartboard, or not! thank you!

  78. Making Musicians –

    This game produces lots of laughs, my students love it!

  79. Virginia F. –

    • Shelley –

      Glad they loved it!

  87. Jeanne D. –

    I purchased this activity to present to my Fine Arts Survey class which includes students of varying ages and academic levels in grades 9-12. The concept intrigued me, but once I downloaded and looked at it more intently, I realized the content was geared to younger students. I recommend this resource for students in elementary and middle school music programs.

    • Shelley –

      Sorry it didn’t fit your needs. I will be looking to do some updates to this in the future to include more details. I hope when it updates, it will be useful to you.

  88. Rachel A. –

    I have to be honest. At first, I was not sold on this game idea, but I was in a pinch to do something in class before starting repertoire for my next concert with my 6th, 7th and 8th graders. They loved this game so much! It was quirky and fun, and we actually learned a lot – about composers AND pasta! I managed to segue this game into a primer about music history and the role the Italian Renaissance played in the advancement of western classical music, and the students kept asking questions and questions. It was great. Just yesterday, a 7th grader said to me, “Can we play Pasta or Composer today?” I live for those moments when MIDDLE SCHOOLERS actually get excited about something! Thank you!

  89. AMY C. –

    Kids loved this game. Perfect for a sub or when the teacher is ill.

  90. Kimberly D. –

    Love these games! So fun! The kids were really good at this one! Thanks!

  91. Teri F. –

    Using this item for Maternity Leave–hopefully the students enjoy it! I appreciated the idea that students can learn about music even when there is a non-music sub.

  92. Kendra K. –

    Kids had fun with it. Will be great for non-musical sub days!

    • Shelley –

      Awesome!

    This was a great little game to have up during open house or conferences or to play as a reward for earning dojo points 🙂

  169. Suzanne C. –

    A fun idea with nice graphics, but for $7.00, I was disappointed that there was no information included about the composers (or the pasta, for that matter!) Each slide simply lists a name followed by a slide that says either “composer” or “pasta.” I wish that the answer slides included a picture and some dates for the composer and a picture of the pasta. That would be much more educational and just as much fun. I used the slides to make my own powerpoint with pictures and links to music.

      I’m sorry that I am unable to include some of these things. It’s very hard to find photos that are copyright free to be included. If I can be of any help, please feel free to email me at mrsstouffersmusicroom@gmail.com

  170. Susan L. –

    Thanks!

  171. Andrea H. –

  172. Kathleen F. –

    I wish it had been a PowerPoint.

      Hi,
      If you run it as a full screen PDF, it will actually work the same!

      Hope this helps! If you need anything else, please feel free to email me at mrsstouffersmusicroom@gmail.com

  173. Dana E. –

    This seems fun but I havent’ had a chance to use it yet. Not sure what occasion I’ll use it for except maybe end of the year.

  174. Josie F. –

    Awesome!! My students love this activity! I teach Italian so I have added in flashcards of what the pasta actually looks like too as my students are very competitive so needed to show them it was real and not made up! lol!

  175. Stephanie Kirkum –

    This activity is super silly and lots of fun. Middle Schoolers got bored really fast, but the 3rd – 5th graders loved it! 🙂

  176. Will A. –

    This is the cutest game. My kids and colleagues loved it!

  177. angela P. –

    thank you

  178. Brianna Papia –

    Kids were in fits of giggles!

  179. Nina K. –

    thanks

  180. Suzie T. –

    Lots of options to answer in this product. I don’t think the kids will know many. Might have to get them to search up the answers.

  181. Music Connects-by Jen –

    Thanks!

  182. Rebecca T. –

    Perfect sub activity when I had to pinch-hit substituting in music at my classical charter school! Both the kids and I had fun!

  183. Ariana D. –

    This is hilarious, and my students love this ‘game’.

  184. Cara T. –

    Super cute way to get the kids engaged as a Music Substitute. Some of them got humorously adamant that they were right (when they were not!)

  185. SaraJane C. –

    This is a great game and easy for a sub use.

  186. Kayla Smith –

    These are so fun! thanks!

  187. Jessica W. –

    Great resource!

  188. Barbara K. –

    very fun activity. students ask to play it again.

  189. Schiphoff Music Studio –

    I had to play this with my students before leaving it as a sub later in the year — so much fun to play in teams!

  190. Michelle H. –

    I played this with both my younger students and older adults. Both age groups had SO much fun with this. I think the older adults had more fun with it though! They were laughing the whole time!

  191. Sarah C. –

    So cute! Even I’m going to enjoy playing this one!

  192. Music with Mrs Hatch –

    LOVE THIS GAME!!! It’s so fun and everyone always gets a laugh.

  193. Sasha A. –

    Looking forward to playing with this!

  194. Rebecca L. –

    Fun and funny activity for teenagers! We had a blast!

  195. Keshia L. –

    My students (and the sub who played it with them) thought this was hilarious! Great game!

  196. Stephanie M. –

    Fun!

  197. Erika C. –

    My piano students think this game is hilarious. They love it!

  198. Shelah B. –

  199. shannon D. –

    Fun game to introducing or reviewing composers

  200. Music With Mrs Lynch –

    Great to use as a class warm-up. The kids thought it was fun!

  201. Aleisha D. –

    I shared my screen with my kids during a zoom meeting for a very fun game. Thanks! I have also printed out and double sided the slides so they can be played as a hands on game when we go back to school.

  202. Bailey C. –

    I have been eyeing this for a LONG time, and am so glad I finally purchased it! It is going to be a great addition to my distance learning lessons with my kiddos. Thanks Melissa!

  203. Brittany’s Music –

    We are playing this game virtually during our live lessons and students think it is so fun! I love that when the answer is composer, there is a brief description/biography of that composer.

  204. Kimberly W. –

    This is a great game. So fun to play!

  205. Amy R. –

    This was a fun, quick end of class activity with my virtual kiddos.

  206. christina N. –

    Fun game! My students loved it!

  207. Elise B. –

    A great resource to leave for a substitute that students love to play!

  208. Dawn P. –

    Wonderful way to introduce students to composers while keeping the element of fun!

  209. Whimsically Musical –

    My students thought this was so fun and couldn’t believe how many pasts there were!

  210. Briana Y. –

    My students love this game, it’s so much fun to watch them get so competitive!! Thank you!

  211. Bethany Y. –

    Love this resource!

  212. Yelena Y. –

    This is a hilarious game that can be played in-person, or synchronously. Students are engaged, and it is overall a very fun and educational activity!

  213. Jessica M. –

    My students love playing this!!

  214. Miss M’s Music –

    My students loved this game! I used it once with my 4th graders and once with my 1st graders, both for when they got to choose a game to play as a reward. The 4th graders really got into the competition aspect of seeing who got the most points, and my 1st graders really enjoyed all the different Italian words and names. This game is ingenious and it’s easy to use in a hybrid classroom, which is such a relief on my part! It took literally 0 prep time on my part and I always keep it in my back pocket just in case I need a sub or I need to fill some extra time in class.

  215. Karen V. –

    After a Month-long study of Music History, my students enjoyed having a laugh with this game. I used it with hybrid classes – zoom and in person. I think everyone ended our class time ready for lunch! So much fun!

  216. Holley L. –

    A great resource for a brain break. My students loved this game.

  217. Shannon M. –

    Super fun activity!

  218. Sydney G. –

    My students thought this was a BLAST and was a great way to introduce some music history and song examples for students. Thank you!

  219. Lillian B. –

    My students thought this game was so funny! I also loved them trying their absolute best to pronounce each of the words on their own. Definitely some interesting interpretations, haha! This kept them engaged the whole class, and they were so bummed when they had to go. Definitely going to be using this a lot!

  220. Sarah M. –

    This is a great filler activity for my students. If we have an extra 5 mins, they love to play this game! Thank you so much!

  221. LeeAnn H. –

    Kids loved this! So fun and easy to use for a fun day!

  222. Paige M. –

    I used this as a last day of music class activity for my 4th graders and they loved it. There was way more content than I could have used in one session! We did it as a team challenge and the competition was fierce.

  223. Meredith M. –

    My students love this game! They think it’s hilarious! So fun!

  224. Kayla R. –

    Perfect sub plan activity. Loved by my students and easy to implement by any substitute.

  225. Miss Jayna’s Music –

    This is a wonderful product! Super engaging for my students. Thanks for sharing.

  226. Syneaqua B. –

    Not only did my mini musicians love this game, my older musicians appreciated the game. For my middle school kiddos, it was a great brain break!

  227. Logan L. –

    This has been an excellent resource in helping my students discover different time periods and styles of music, and in getting to know various Italian composers. Plus, they find the challenge of figuring out if the name is a pasta or composer very fun (I’ve even had some teachers participate, too!)

  228. Michelle Venneri –

    The students had a blast with this game!!! They asked if we could play it again next music class! Thank you so much for an awesome resource!

  229. Julie W. –

    This game is so fun and silly. It worked well in an online group class. tI aught the kids about several of the composers first. We had a lot of fun!

  230. Cheryl S. –

    Thanks for creating this fun resource for the children!

  231. Carrolls Carols –

    This game sent my high schoolers into a frenzy and I loved every second of it. It was engaging and wild, so much fun!

  232. Erica Lucas –

    This was so much fun to play with my kids on our food themed RYSD!

  233. kunger music studio –

    My students couldn’t get enough of these — what a great game for an ice breaker or “brain break”!

  234. Marisa H. –

    This is a fun thing to pop on the screen when there’s “not enough time to do something, but too much time to do nothing.” The students have a blast arguing over whether it’s a composer or a pasta!

  235. Gloria W. –

    I had some 6th grade students working on a project and some finished early so I used this game as a filler until everyone was finished. It kept them engaged and was a lot of fun. Some of the things I didn’t even know, so it was a learning experience for me too. It was great to think about pasta but also they got to learn about some composers many were not familiar with.

  236. Ms P Music Class –

    My students are OBSESSED with this game! I’ve played it a few ways, in teams or on their own with a whiteboard. They keep asking me to play it again!

  237. Connie B. –

    What a fun activity! My students really enjoyed this!

  238. Mary B. –

    My kids really enjoyed this as a fun post-concert, end-of-the-year activity. I like that it has bite-sized information about the composers. This would also be a great thing to leave for a sub. Thanks for the fun product!

  239. Autumn S. –

    My students loved this game and I will be using it more this upcoming school year!

  240. The Sunshine Support Resources Supermarket –

    This was a fun and unique activity to use with the kids. They enjoyed trying to guess which was which and made so much noise when they got it right (and wrong).

  241. Nancy K. –

    I left this with a sub. The students said it was fun!

  242. In a Rush –

    This was a wonderful resource! Certain times of the year are truly hectic so to have access to great quality resources is paramount! I can feel better about having to rush through some things quickly and still provide quality! Thank you for sharing your talents with this product!

  243. Jonathan L. –

    My students loved using this resource! Thanks for creating engaging and fun activities!

  244. Katie D. –

    Thank you so much! This was very helpful in my classroom.

  245. Micah R. –

    This was great for something to do at the end of the year or sub plans!

  246. Jennifer K. –

    This was a fun time-filler for the end of the year, and I plan to use it for those awkward last few minutes when I didn’t plan a long enough lesson.

  247. Nicole R. –

    This was awesome for after our concerts and before the end of the school year. We did it team style and my students really got into it – especially the 6th and 7th graders.

  248. Mary K R. –

    My students loved this game ~ it was a great end of year activity for my older students. Thank you!

  249. Haley W. –

    We turned this into a game and the students have to answer questions about the music that each composer wrote. My students beg for this game! It is a favorite over all of the grades that I teach. I went to the state music educators conference and I was not the only teacher that mentioned this game. Amazing!

  250. Suzanne B. –

    Super fun resource to have – left for a substitute to play with my classes. She said they LOVED it!

  251. Rachel C. –

    Used this with my older students (grade 6-8) who sometimes struggled to be engaged in music topics. We broke off into two teams and they would play against each other. They really enjoyed it as a reward.

  252. Neesey K –

    I left these with my maternity leave plans and they were a hit. the kids learned a lot about these composers and the sub said they learned a lot too! Double Win!

  253. The Organized Instructor –

    My students loved this and it is really cute, too!

  254. Music with Mari –

    My students enjoyed this resource for just a few minutes towards the end of a lesson.

  255. Robin L. –

    My music game club really enjoyed this game! It is fun and unique.

  256. Sarah O. –

    My fourth graders laughed so much during this game! The whole room erupted with cheers when they got the answer correct!
