Introduction
This lesson uses solfège and the terms step and skip to introduce intervals. Students will review by practicing solfège and identifying steps and skips between solfège syllables before asking how to identify smaller skips from larger ones. This will lead to identifying the terms interval, major second, major third, perfect fifth, and major sixth. Students will end by applying these new terms in a short and fun group activity that asks students to correctly identify the solfège associated with the described intervals.
