Rhythm Exercises

These exercises focus on rhythm without the requirement of pitch. They can be used with or without a time signature. Due to the age group we often use the count value of each note to help learn them.

We use a guiro in class for the rhythms as this plays long and short sounds. You can make a guiro from a ribbed water bottle and a pencil.
