“Interest is the best teacher.” When students are interested in learning, they will have endless pursuit of knowledge and exploration. desire. Changing "I want to learn" to "I want to learn" can often achieve twice the result with half the effort. Music is an auditory art that cannot be seen or touched. It is not enough to turn music classes into listening and singing classes. Music games effectively break the space for music learning and impart knowledge to students subtly in enjoyable games.

For example, when conducting some rhythm training and listening training, use advanced teaching tools to play games to stimulate students' interest and mobilize their initiative in learning. During practice, there are many different types of rhythm patterns or listening exercises on the magnetic line music board, allowing students to practice listening comprehension. When the teacher clicks a rhythm question, the students are asked to place the rhythm that the teacher clicked on the magnetic line music board, or to find the pitch that the teacher played. In this way, using games, abstract rhythm training and listening training become visible high, low, long and short. Teachers can also provide timely feedback and control the teaching rhythm, which also enhances students' perception and understanding of music, achieving good results.

As an introductory game, its role is to reveal the topic, attract the attention of junior high school students, stimulate the interest and enthusiasm of junior high school students, and achieve the purpose of attracting new ideas. It should be typical and interesting, short and concise. It seems that the game is too short to allow students to quickly enter the role of music class in a short and interesting game, thus motivating students to enter the class with high emotions.

Music games can inspire students to create and develop music. As Liao Naixiong said: "In music classes, playfulness and musicality must be inherent. In this way, as a music game, it can become a best, lively, interesting and effective teaching form."

According to Zankov’s theory, the core of music teaching principles is the development and formation of students’ musical auditory representations. Music games have the function of putting the auditory representation of music into action, allowing junior high school students to start from music - feel music (listening to music); go to music - express music (music games); and then return to music In the middle - to achieve the purpose of music teaching (mastering music). For example, after students have learned the seven tones of "do, re, mi, fa, so, la, si", teachers can design some music games to allow students to try simple melody creation. For example, I asked seven students to play the role of seven dwarfs. Each dwarf wears a small hat on its head. The hat has seven-tone roll call and rhythm written on it. Let the students try to move the small hat and knit. Sing the melody you like, then sing the arranged melody, and then use your imagination to add lyrics to it. You can also let students choose the melody based on the lyrics. Through this pleasant and vivid game, students' musical imagination is developed and their creative interests are stimulated. Therefore, in teaching, teachers should create more interesting music games to guide students to consciously make creative attempts, thereby improving their musical creativity. Therefore, music games are a bridge to help junior high school students learn music.

Leo Tolstoy said: "Music is the shorthand of human emotions." The rhythm, melody, intensity, speed changes of different songs can bring different feelings to people. In music teaching, by allowing students to listen to songs in their entirety, it can not only eliminate students' boredom caused by purely learning to sing songs, but also help stimulate students' curiosity and desire to learn to sing, so that students can take the initiative and continue to sing.
