Happy New Year Color by Music Rhythm Worksheets

Description

Looking for a simple way to review rhythms after the winter break with New Year music coloring worksheets?

I created this set to give elementary music teachers an easy, print-and-go activity for January music lessons. Students match standard rhythm notation, written note names, and Kodály syllables to the color keys to reveal cheerful holiday illustrations. You can use these pages for independent seatwork, rhythm centers, early finishers, or sub plans.

The set includes three differentiated versions for each design, plus blank templates for custom practice.

--- WHAT IS INCLUDED? ---

8 designs in this set in 3 different formats (24 pages in total):

• 1 format ~ for younger students – music symbols match the music symbols in the picture.
• 2 format ~ for older students – music symbols' names are given in the color keys.
• 3 format ~ Kodaly approach – “rhythm terms” match the symbols in the picture.
