Dear Families,
I found a great song with wonderful rhythm parts that you and your child and/or children and/or your family could perform together, which would be amazing and so much fun! Your child and/or children could teach you about the quarter note, whole note, paired eighth note, and quarter rest.
Here is a reminder sheet about these notes and rest.
I hope you find this reminder sheet helpful!
Warmly,
Ms. Wilder

Assignment
There are several rhythm parts that you can pick.
You can choose the following instrument parts
- egg shaker part
- xylophone part
- drum part
- rhythm sticks part
Which part did you pick to clap and/or pat on your legs?
Practice your part with the song. Did you find your part in one of the squares around the outside? If not, please ask for help to find it. Next, pick a new part. Try all four rhythm parts.
How did it go? I feel certain you did amazing! Great job! I miss you!
