Hi Tirth and Khevansh
Great job getting building one more important musical skill – this time with rhythm! We can make out you had a great time singing the patterns. Here’s some stars and claps for you: ✨✨✨✨✨👏👏👏👏👏
Dear Parent,
Rhythm is an essential part of music, and is frequently ignored in the teaching phase. By becoming conversant with the basic 4/4 rhythm (4 beats in every line, which repeats), the children are internalising standard rhythm. By playing around the patterns, the children are experiencing how the same pattern can create different types of musical elements.
Please see our pointwise feedback below on your child’s performance:
Confidence and Independence – excellent
Understanding of the concept or exercise – excellent
Singing/ Pitching – excellent
Rhythm – excellent
Overall control (volume, breath etc) – excellent
Pronunciation/ recollection of lyrics – excellent
Tirth and Khevansh seem to have enjoyed this exercise. Good to see them try different versions each. Please ensure they try all the variations given in the assignment, especially ones where you don’t say one letter.
You can also encourage them to replace the oranges and apples with other words – and they might even compose their own songs. Remember to keep it simple at first so that one doesn’t lose the underlying rhythm.

Please do share these experiments with us too 🙂
