This is a what?!

When I was in my church youth group, we played a game called "This is a Pencil".

While sitting in a circle...
Person 1 holds out a pencil "This is a pencil"
Person 2 responds "A what?"
Person 1 says "A pencil" and hands it to person 2.
Person 2 would then go through the same process with Person 3 until the pencil makes it all the way around the circle.
As we got the idea, more items were added. This is a ruler, no this is some paper, this is a what?!

I made some flash cards with various music symbols (notes, rests, bar line, repeat sign, treble clef, etc) and  we played the game with those. The students were repeating the vocabulary and putting the names with the symbols all while playing a game. 2nd and 3rd grade loved it!!!
