What is included in this winter composition activity?

  • Full color pages
  • Black and white pages
  • Eight pre-made winter spinners
  • Five notations sheets
  • Blank spinner pages so you can add any rhythms you like to suit your students’ current needs.
  • Plastic spinners are not included, but I use these plastic spinners and they work beautifully with card stock. Paperclips spun around a pencil tip and fidget spinners work great too!

 

Using this winter composition activity in group piano or music class

This winter rhythm activity is great for private lessons as well as groups! Students can complete the activity on their own, or as a team.

  • Each group needs only one spinner page (plastic spinners must be purchased separately).
  • Each person in the group needs his own notation page.
  • A variety of time signatures is included, as well as a page without time signatures.
  • The students take turns spinning the spinner, then notating the rhythm onto their notation sheet.
  • After the rhythms have been notated, the students take turns performing their rhythms for their peers.
  • To sum up, students Spin, Notate, and Perform!

 

Using this winter composition activity in private piano lessons

Performance tips for the winter composition activity

  • Students should be creative when performing!
  • Marching, tapping, snapping, performing in the style of the Cup Game, using Boomwhackers, classroom percussion instruments, the piano, and playing a clapping game are only a few of the many ways students can move to their newly created rhythm patterns.
  • Most importantly, have fun!
