This resource comprises 10 worksheets designed to secure, revise, and test knowledge of Rhythm and Metre. Aimed at Key Stage 3 Students, each worksheet should take between 15 and 30 minutes to complete, making them perfect for homework tasks or tests, but also allowing you to set only a few questions as a starter or combine whole worksheets into cover lessons for a supply teacher. If you use it for the latter, you needn’t worry about coming back to a huge pile of marking because full answers and a detailed teacher guide are also included in this resource pack, so students can mark and correct their own work, and teachers with limited specialist subject knowledge are supported.
Specifically, the worksheets incorporate the following types of activity: maths with note duration symbols (dotted and un-dotted notes); identifying metres (simple and basic compound time); adding missing bar lines (simple and basic compound time); adding missing note durations from bars (simple and basic compound time); developing rhythms using augmentation and diminution techniques (doubling and halving note values into a new time signature – 2/4 to 2/2 for example). A handy little guide to duration, which can be printed as small cards ahead of the lesson, has been included so that students can simply work the notes out, even if they are only vaguely familiar with note duration symbols – so everything has been thought of for your convenience.
