Rhythm Composition Pages and Mini Lessons - Summer Theme

Music Composition: Summer Rhythm Composition - Are you looking for ways to include more composition and notation opportunities for your students in your lesson? This two - day lesson will help your students feel successful in their ability to compose music while practicing notating and composing with different rhythms.

This set includes:

1) A two - day lesson plan with procedures for incorporating this Summer composition that includes practice reading, notating, composing, peer teaching, and performing either on classroom non-pitched percussion instruments or body percussion.

2) Composition pages for the following concepts

- Ta and titi

- Ta rest

- Half note

- Tiri-tiri

- Ti-tiri

- Tiri-ti

These pages may be used with any system for reading rhythms. Updated to include both standard and stick notation.

3) Rubrics (printed 4 to a page)

- Performance rubric

- Student self-evaluation

This lesson could easily be left with a sub if you need to be out of the classroom. I would just leave their performance of their compositions for when you return.
