Clapping 3/4 Rhythm – Time Signature (Beginners)

Have you seen videos where students have rhythm cards in front of them, clap the rhythm, and then the teacher adds another card and changes ONE beat? Well, this is my attempt at creating a boom deck that does just that!

Notes included in this deck are: quarter note, half note, dotted half note, and then the quarter rest. I made another deck that has the same notes, but also includes 8th notes. This one is easier and perfect for beginners!

The only way to know if the student is clapping it out correctly, is if you’re with them. Students will clap the card written out in front of them, maybe 2 to 4 rounds, and when they’re ready, they tap ONE beat. That one beat will change, keeping everything else the same!

There’s no limit as to how many times or cards you want to go through, so you can stop at any point in time!

Your students will be pros at rhythm after going through this deck!
