The First graders amazed me with their rhythm work this week! We pulled out the Beat Strips and Rhythm Markers and I asked students to decode a number of rhythms. They figured out how to write the rhythm to Peace Round, a song we all learned earlier in the year.


We have been working with quarter notes, double eighth notes, and quarter rests. First graders decided to give themselves a round of rests (instead of applause) for having such a great day in music!
