Rhythm Dictation
Rhythm dictation is a skill that helps you to hear a rhythm and then write it down.
Exercise: You will hear an 8-beat rhythm being played; you have to decide how many
claps there were on each beat. Place a circle in each box for each clap you
hear. If you hear nothing, leave the box (beat) blank.

Lesson 2
Adding Stems to Rhythms.
When we have notes, like the ones below, we also have stems attached to them.
Where we have two notes in the space of one beat, we join them together with a ‘bridge’
Like this;
TASK 1: Using the rhythm grid below, add stems and bridges where necessary.
When we sing or clap the same thing at the same time, we call this Unison: a unison
rhythm is when one or more people clap exactly the same thing at the same time.
