I am excited to use this with my students! I love how you’ve included pictures, too. Although I have 3rd/4th/5th this year, I know that this will really help some of my struggling readers!

The visuals are great. I really like the ability to make it more complicated for older grades or more advanced students. This will be an activity we can do over and over, and never have to do it exactly the same way.
Nicole Z. –
I loved the visuals and using familiar words to teach rhythm worked well during supply teaching during beginning of the school year to see how much the students know about music already so it was a well thought out activity to start off with

I love activities that crossover from the general ed classroom to the music classroom. I discovered earlier this year that I wasn’t giving my students enough composing and improvisation time in the younger grades. I introduced this to the first graders and they did an amazing job. To save time, I cut out the pieces and they worked with a partner to create their composition and perform it with rhythm instruments. When everyone had a turn, we did a gallery walk, playing each partners composition on our respective rhythm instruments. The classroom teachers said a lot of the first graders wanted to write about this in their journals when they returned to class. SCORE!
