Snacks between the bar lines
To introduce the concept of bar lines, we played "Teacher May I" (see last previous blog post) again but instead used chocolate chip quarter notes (w/ pretzel stems), marshmallow half note (w/ pretzel stems) and Marshmallow whole notes (Big Marshmallows). The children "ordered" notes to add up to 4 beat measures and then also "ordered" bar lines (pretzel sticks) to divide up their measures into groups of 4 beats.

Thanks for the fun idea -- I have a group class tomorrow so I'm busily finishing up the schedule... thanks for your good ideas!

This sounds like so much fun! I'm always excited to try new snack games in group lessons, and have a number of kids that this would be perfect for. Thanks for sharing!
