Rhythm Cards Level 1 Elementary Time. Writable, Wipe-Clean Flash Cards. Music Education Through Game Playing.

As an elementary music teacher, I have spent many hours trying to create note flash cards that are a clear and accurate representation of note values. That’s why I was so excited and impressed when I found these new note perfect flash cards. Having the cards differ in length with large clear notes made it very easy for my students to not only feel the full value of a note but to also see it. I have used these flash cards in dozens of music activities. Want children to compose music? Give them the cards and have them create different four beat patterns. Even before the student has fully mastered reading the notation, they can see if they have the right number of beats because of the length of the flash cards. Want to quickly assess your students? Create patterns with note cards on the floor and have each student read them off. Note Perfect flash cards are made on laminated paper, so you can write on them with dry erase markers. They contain different time signature cards, so you can visually show your students how 3/4 looks and feels different from 4/4. I love the fact that you can easily aurally and visually teach note values at the same time with these cards. They are excellent for all learners.Criticism: I wish there was an affordable class set. (Like a ten pack for $100) Also, I wish it came with at least 5 quarter notes.

These cards are sturdy, easy to manipulate, and just what I’ve been wanting to use with my piano students. There are just enough of each type of note card for my teaching purposes.

I’ve been looking for a set of rhythm cards to give a young friend who is learning how to play the piano and drums. I found a lot to choose from but what I liked best about these cards is that you aren’t tied to pre-printed rhythms. Also, you can write on them (and erase) if you need to. My friend loves them and he’s already making up and playing his own patterns. He treats it like a puzzle. He’s having a great time and learning something at the same time.

I understand the concept of having a whole note as the largest measure of music, but it doesn't have to be on a larger card. They are just laminated paper and something 1 step up from what I would have created myself. The various sizes are annoying to store and honestly have me looking for a set that is the same size cards, so that I can use actual rhythm with the visual to explain music.

I think it's a lovely product, and I love the concept on which it is based. The quality looks good. My only complaint is that it was packaged in a mailing envelope that was not long enough, and has permanent creases in the longer pieces.

These are an excellent tool for working with young children learning music. I particularly like that the length of the card matches the note value! The only thing that I would have liked to have included in this set would be a whole rest (that matches the length of the whole note) and eighth rests to go with this set. I also bought the orange set that includes compound time signatures. Overall very happy with this purchase!

As an adult student, I find these cards versatile and helpful; they can be used any number of ways.The notes and rests are brightly printed in large bold characters and easy to manipulate on a tabletop to create a large range of exercises.In addition, the material used makes them indestructible. I highly recommend this product for either teaching or learning purposes;a real standout addition to teaching/learning products for musical pedagogy.

Likes: laminated.Don't Like: whole note, dotted half note and half note cards are centered, not at left of each card. There is no Rest rhythm cards for whole note, half note (1 card included), no quarter rest, no 8th note rest.
