  • The first question requires students to explain the time signature. (Answer: There are 3 crotchet beats [quarter note beats] in each bar.)
  • The second question instructs students to fill in the missing bar lines.
  • The third question gives students the opportunity to create a rhythm in 3/4 metre.
