Voice: what can you see in the picture?

This is an example of another activity: Rhythm cards. These have been put onto an interactive board and the children move them around selecting an order and clapping and saying the rhythm names. On the final resource it would be necessary for each rhythm card to have a sound file that said the rhythm pattern on the card (eg tikatika titi tikatika ta) .
This is an example of another activity. Children write music on the board filling in the missing bits. It would be important for the final resource to be able to play back what has been written on the board.
