Teaching Rhythms

Next Steps

When teaching rhythms to primary students, I heard of this great idea a while back that my students enjoy and understand. I call a quarter note a “walk” and an eighth note a “run”, so two eighth notes together is a “run-run”. A half note is a “walk-slow” and a dotted half note is a “walk-so-slow”.
