** Make stems longer when beaming notes further apart The note which is furthest away from the middle line tells us which way we should draw our stems.
(stem should be at least 3 lines, or 2 spaces, long)
** Dots and flags always go to the right of the note head.

If you missed class -- Print off the 1st page of the above rhythm worksheet and turn it in. You must write in the rhythms using the rhythm line a la Mr. Barnes (the clapped or played rhythm above the line and the subdivisions below the line). If you are confused - come see Ms. P for clarification.
IDEA --------- for assisting in composing your melody.
Figure out a rhythm sequence you like, then choose a scale and improvise until you like what you hear. Write it down!
