below that.
Lesson 1: We will review several rhythms we have used over the past few years through a few different activities. You will also begin to brainstorm some different rhythm patterns.
Lesson 2: We will bring some of our varied rhythm patterns together and discuss which patterns are more complex. You will be assigned your group for the Rhythm Scene and meet together to watch a video on where your scene should or shouldn't be. Your group will decide where your scene is going to occur before next class. Make sure to keep in mind that the classroom you picked should have a lot of different items you can use to create interesting sounds.

Looking back on this project, I find that I have learned so many useful tools that I never knew existed. I have always thought that there is only so much technology that I can input into my music classes but this class and project proved my thoughts very wrong. I think that the tools that I will take away and use often are Screencast O-matic, Vocaroo, and TedEd. Those tools are pretty easy to use but help immensely when having to leave lesson plans or give students extra help.

3. Congratulations on performing in front of your peers! You and your group members are going to watch your performance and self-assess what your group did. It is important that you recognize some factors that your group did well on as well as a factor or two that your group or you could improve on for the next time.
