Rabbit and Possum

This fun and fabulous game is useful for:

Preparing and practising the melodic element 'fa'.
Teaching the rhythmic element 'tim-ka' (dotted quaver, semiquaver / dotted eighth note, sixteenth note).
Figuring out what type of 6th interval there is in the song. (The last line has a descending minor 6th.)
