Compose yourself1. Use the beat chart to create an eight bar rhythm pattern in 4/4. Use only these notes: q qr Q . Write the rhythms under the hearts. Perform your rhythm for your teacher before writing your melody.
2. Use the following tubes: CDE GA or DE GAB. Experiment with different notes on each beat. (Don’t change notes on eighth notes.) If you use CDE GA your melody must end on C. If you use DE GAB your melody can end on E or G. Pencil the letter names under the rhythms. Try it out. If your group likes the way it sounds, keep it. If your group doesn’t like the way it sounds, change it.
3. Write your notes and rhythms on the musical staff. Each student should practice writing the song on the staff.
