How many times have I drawn pretend cookies and pizzas to help students visualize note values? Many students need a little extra help understanding how sixteenth notes, eighth notes and quarter notes are related and we have taken many imaginary trips to Tim Horton's to visualize cookies broken into halves and quarters.
If you read yesterday's post, perhaps your interest is piqued for trying out the Noteshelf app for iPad. I have been having the best time creating background images and building workbooks that I can use over and over again with my students on the iPad.
Today I'd like to share my collection of images that I use when working on eighth and sixteenth note rhythms. Just click here to open my zipped file from Dropbox, the folder contain 5 images which you can save and sync to your iPad. You might want to watch my video tutorial to learn how to create a booklet with custom background images using Noteshelf. I just takes a little practice. By the way, when you download these images they should be rotated so the bar is at the bottom, that way they will fill the page properly in Noteshelf.
Good luck everyone. As Stephen said last week, "the iPad makes everything fun".


Thanks again. Why didn't I think to rotate the images?? I appreciate all your work. I'm not very creative, visually, so I really do appreciate you offering these to us. And thanks for all the great iPad suggestions!
ReplyDeleteThank-you so very much Anne. You are very generous and I appreciate your work.
