Stick Rhythms
The stick rhythm pages I provided in pdf format found at the bottom of this webpage, along with some rhythm sticks make for a great student piano party.
The pages range in levels from beginner to intermediate rhythms.
They can be used in countless ways, but here's one idea:
The games makes a great rhythmic sound. Later, a recording or live playing of a piece with the same time signature can be played to provide the beat as well as melody and harmony.

The pages range in levels from beginner to intermediate rhythms.
They can be used in countless ways, but here's one idea:
- One group of students starts tapping from line one, while a second group starts tapping from line two, and so on.
- Each group has to count its own part very carefully, or it would leave the other groups tapping different rhythms.
- Once the group has gone through this a few times and learns its parts, students will begin to listen to the complex rhythms of all of the parts at once.
The games makes a great rhythmic sound. Later, a recording or live playing of a piece with the same time signature can be played to provide the beat as well as melody and harmony.
