We’ve begun to learn about fractions in math class, but the concept becomes even clearer when we’re learning how to read and write music with Mrs. Oliver. Here are some of our first rhythms showing which fractions are equivalent to a whole note. Four of the groups were able to finish their rhythm and performance. Enjoy!
Our rhythm shows that four 2/8 beats equal one whole note.
Our rhythm shows how a whole note equals 2/8+2/8+2/8+2/8.
Our rhythm shows that 1/2 note +1/2 note =1 whole note.
Our rhythm shows that a whole note is equal to four quarter notes.
