The first section of this teaching video will help students review the basic note values.
Next you can read the sounds.
Want to practice your rhythms?
Check out this Music Theory resource with VIDEO practice activities.
Then, tap and say the spring rhythm sounds together.
Finally, you can practice playing along with the beat track.
Rewind the video to practice all of the rhythms.
Grab a partner and have them play one part while you play the other.
Finally, use some instruments or home made drums, shakers or body percussion to play the Spring rhythms.
In addition, you can use your piano, guitar, ukulele or other pitched instrument to practice learning note names, strings and pitches.
Try playing all of the rhythms on one note.
Or, try playing the rhythms on the notes in one chord, like C.
You’d play C E G.
Great way to learn your chords!
For a bit of Spring craziness, why not try all the different rhythms using different sounds you can find at home or in your classroom.
Want to make your own egg shakers?
Check out this Blog Post!
Freeze the video on the section that has all of the sounds on one slide/page.
Next, create a 4 beat pattern using the 1 beat rhythms.
What?
Use only, WORM, TULIP and VEGETABLES to create a pattern.
Play your pattern for a friend or teacher, or parent.
Next have the other person play only SUN or RAIN rhythms.
Put your parts together!
