For Music
Mrs. Ross recommends that her students try out the game on this website, http://www.carnegiehall.org/orc/interactive_resources.html. Once there, choose The Young Person's Guide to the Orchestra, by Benjamin Britten. When that window comes up, please register so your child's results will be kept. She asks that you choose a user name and password, which you would not mind sharing with her. She'll then be able to log on and see the progress of any students who play the game.
