    This was great for the short week back after winter break. My students enjoyed using it to create their own rhythm patterns.

  2. Amber B. –

    My students enjoyed creating their own guided rhythm composition. They loved listening to their classmates’ compositions as well.

  3. Ms Guse Creations –

    Very simple to prep, and great to start off the semester after break with a little review at the same time.

  4. Lacie H. –

    Great way to assess learning as well as allowing students creative freedom to create their own rhythmic patterns. Thank you!

  5. Heather G. –

    This was a great activity to get us engaged again after a long break and concert prep time.

  6. Emma Ede –

    Fab resource, thank you! Saved me lots of prep time

  7. Gretchen P. –

    Perfect activity to review quarter note, eighth note rhythms, and thinking in 1 part/syllable rhythms and 2 part/syllable rhythms. Trying to have my students do as much play with these rhythms as possible, as they were struggling with them earlier in the year. Thank you for such a fun, easy, and low prep resource! 10/10 will use again!
