 Hello Grade 2,

I hope you had a good weekend.

Today we are going to work on quarter notes and eighth notes.

First look over the top half of the worksheet below.  Then click the link at the bottom of the page and listen to the recording of that audio file.

Thank you,

Mr. Hanas

Hello Second Graders,

I hope you enjoyed the Holiday weekend!!

 

Today we will practice keeping a STEADY BEAT.

Use the link at the bottom of the page to go to an online metronome.  The metronome will help us keep a steady beat.

 Use the "-" or "+"  signs to set the metronome at 90 BPM (Beats Per Minute).

 

Lightly pat your legs at the same time as the beats of the metronome.

 

Use the musical sound "Ta" to speak the steady beat as you pat your legs  (Ta-Ta-Ta-Ta).

 

That's it for today!                       https://www.musicca.com/metronome     (online metronome)

 

Thank you,

Mr. Hanas
