Students Learn Quickly
My students love this engaging resource. We spend lots of time teaching/reviewing rhythms and I was so excited to find this resource. They love playing it and they are progressing much quicker in their rhythm readiness. Thank you!

Intuitive Resources
These games are wonderful. They are clearly set up and intuitive for students to complete. I love to use the set of them to review and individually assess each student to see what might need more work as we move forward. They are easy to assign in Google Classroom and can be completed on any device.

Rhythmic Ear Training
I have been using this as review with my beginning band students. The units have been very helpful in getting them back into the groove of reading rhythms, and have helped improve their ears as well. The different levels are great and build on one another as they go.

Multiple Grade Levels
Students absolutely loved participating in this activity. Many of my students are far behind grade level in music so it’s been very useful for multiple grade levels. They love using the SMARTboard and the way it’s designed makes student participation super easy.

Easy-to-Use
A great, clear introduction to the instruments of the orchestra. It’s well-organized and easy for students to understand. Informative and engaging activities cover each section of the orchestra explaining the role and sound of each instrument.
