1st graders in music have been learning about rhythm and how there are long sounds, short sounds and no sounds in music. We have also been talking about how our words and speech have a rhythm. 1st graders have been playing different instruments to match the rhythm of their names, and they have been playing different rhythms using quarter notes, eighth notes and rests (we say “ta, ti-ti, and no sound.”) **Ask your student to sing for you our opening song, “Hola, hello, I’m so very glad to see you” and see if they can write a ta, ti-ti and rest for you.
