Counting and Subdividing the Beat

For young students counting and tapping doing the math can be a a tough concept. I use this worksheet and puzzle as a followup to my teaching and modeling the concept.

It's a good review of what they know and eases the panic of trying to play sixteenth notes and is a real time saver for getting into 8th note sixteenth note combos.

I also pass it along to my district.... oh, how I wish they did the math when setting a music budget (still $0)
