Random Riff Writer - Levels 1, 2, & 3
Random Riff Writer helps students practice rhythm reading while also developing their creativity and riff-writing skills.
Features of Random Riff Writer:
Quick and Easy to use - print it out for each student or work through it as a class by displaying it on a TV or Computer
Tiered Learning Levels make it Suitable for Group Teaching - This playsheet can be used in several different teaching formats but can work super well in group classes as you can give particular students different levels depending on their abilities. Alternatively, all students can be on the same level but the quicker students can go ahead and complete some of the extra challenges.
How to Complete:
1 ) Clap the rhythm for Riff 1 - once that is completed, they tick off the 1st guitar pick symbol
2) Write fret numbers in the boxes underneath the rhythms of Riff 1 - I like to make it a rule that they can only use Frets 1-8 depending on their skill level, so they’re focusing on playing the rhythms correctly - once that is completed, they tick off the 2nd guitar pick symbol
3) Play their riff with the correct rhythm on the Low E string, 5 times in a row without a mistake - once that is completed, they tick off the 3rd guitar pick symbol
4) Students then move to the next Riff and complete all 3 challenges and so on…
Extra: Students that complete the riffs super quickly have the option to complete the ‘Level Up Challenges’ at the bottom of the page (Guitar Pick 4, 5, 6 & 7).
Once the whole playsheet has been completed, the teacher can sign it as completed in the bottom right-hand corner to track the students’ progress
