Note Knacks Cards by Kristin Pugliese

NEW Note Knacks Cards, designed for each student to have their own set of Note Knacks Manipulatives! These cards tear out easily from perforated pages and are printed with a semi-glossy finish for protection. Note Knacks are an interactive, hand-on learning tool that allows children to learn and absorb music notation concepts by working with these specially-designed manipulatives. The tiles provide kids with a physical representation of the five different rest and note values by length, color and notation. The note is on one side; the rest is on the other. Also, each tile is color-coded so that if you say the color, you say the rhythm! Included time signature “frames” for 2/4, 3/4, and 4/4 time allows kids to self-correct their work. Kristin M.
