They can then discuss which rhythms had the most pairs, which had the fewest, and discuss the difference between them, add them together, subtract them, etc. Students can create a 'bar graph' by graphing matching rhythms (see below). Have students respond (with paper and pencil) to the following writing prompt, 'Which character would you most like to meet? What would you talk about?' (you can also create your own prompts)ġ. This way, you can create a student-made set to play with in the future. Finally, they can write the rhythms that correspond to their animal. Students can create their own card (you can use small index cards) by first creating a name ('Silly Swan' or 'Tricky Turkey' etc) using an adjective and an animal name. You can also discuss the use of alliteration ('fashionable fox' - both start with f's).Ģ. After the game is played, students place the cards face up, paired, in alphabetical order (as in the picture above). They can play their pairs on an unpitched rhythm instrument.ġ. Waterproof cards include: full deck of standard size playing cards. Students can lay out their pairs when finished and clap and chant each pair. in-1 Fun Pack includes : Memory, Go Fish, Crazy Eights, Old Maid, Matching, and Slap Jack. Then, the group can clap and chant that student's rhythm.Ģ. Students must clap and chant the rhythm on each pair they create.
