A Strategy To Teach Ta Ti-Ti

Goals

• Students will aurally and visually understand that there can be one sound on a beat named "ta" and two sounds on a beat named "ti-ti".  
• Students will learn the symbol [ta] and [ti-ti] and be able to use these rhythms to:
• read
• write
• perform
• create
• They will be able to identify and perform these rhythms in known and unknown repertoire.

Prerequisite Skills/ Knowledge

Students will already need to:

• Understand the concept and term "beat" and be able to perform the beat correctly and confidently in a range of songs in different tempi.
• Understand the concept and term "rhythm" and be able to perform correctly and confidently in a range of songs in different tempi (i.e. they will be able to "keep the words" of the song and know that this is called "rhythm").
• Know a range of songs containing only the rhythms "ta" and "ti-ti".
