Rhythm Composition Grid

A worksheet drilling rhythmic arithmetic and beaming rules, then a blank four-bar grid for writing rhythms of your own and turning one into music.

What's inside

• A note-value table with beats, dotted values and what two of each make, counted in crotchet beats
• Three rules that earn marks — beaming within the beat, filling rests to the beat, and how a borrowed upbeat works
• Twelve bar-completion questions and four spot-the-error questions across common time signatures
• Four blank rhythm grids, including compound time and a make-your-own-metre grid, with bar 3 answering bar 1
• An exercise turning a chosen rhythm into a melody in C major or A minor, plus a full answer key
