ColorCards - Listening Skills Sequencing Sounds

Sequencing Sounds is a sound and picture matching activity. It involves the recognition of short sound sequences. The pack includes a CD containing the forty individual sounds, and forty matching laminated photocards.

Each step of every sequence is illustrated. Each sequence is played once and is separated from the next sequence by a pause. There is a shorter pause between the individual sounds of a sequence, except where no pause occurs in reality. In this case, the sounds run on. The sequences are well known and familiar to most students.

Two-step sequences include:

• Cleaning teeth
• Birthday cake candles
• Alarm clock

Three step sequences include:

• Having breakfast
• Playing percussion instruments
• Having a drink
