My students have used these cards as flashcards, as a starting point for drumming projects, and self-directed sight-reading, just to name a few! Activity 4: Rhythm Bingo There are 10 different bingo cards (and a blank one if you would prefer to have students write their own rhythms) included in this folder. Additionally, there is a powerpoint included that will play the rhythms for you (or a substitute teacher!) if you would prefer to walk around the classroom to support students. Students have a lot of fun playing rhythm bingo and enjoy the multiple ways to play. I hope that you enjoy practicing rhythms!
