| Students are reading and creating using pumpkin rhythms! |
 |
| Each pumpkin contains a different rhythm in4/4 time! |
 |
| Students listened to me play and clap the rhythm, they dictated it to see if they got it right! |
 |
| Primary students are using ta (quarter note), ti-ti (pair of eighth notes) and quarter rests. |
 |
| Older students use tika-tika (sixteenth notes), too-oo (half-note), and "great big whole notes". |
There are many different activities you could do with these rhythm pumpkins! Give students 4 pumpkins and have them compose a short rhythmic piece to be performed using body percussion. Later the students could perform using non-pitched percussion. Students could also compose lyrics to a Halloween song using the rhythms that I provide on the pumpkins.
