Find Your Octave Range: The instructor plays middle C on the piano. Students sing the pitch back as "C4." The instructor slowly steps down notes on the piano while students sing along with pitch names (i.e. C4, B3, A3...), dropping out once the pitch gets too low for their range. Each student writes down their lowest pitch by name (e.g. G3). Then, the instructor starts at middle C again and steps up, repeating the process with the class until everyone has noted both their highest and lowest pitches. Each student then writes out their vocal range on a treble or bass clef staff (as appropriate) with pitch names labeled.
