Sixth Grade Learning Targets during Remote Learning

1. I can read and demonstrate advanced rhythmic patterns based on three separate 16th-note groupings of rhythm syllables: "du-da-day-da," "du--day-da," and "du-day-da."

2. I can practice and tune my ear and voice toward the top note of a musical scale (High Do) to make sight-reading more complicated tone-sets easier.
