Blue Jello Rhythm Puzzles
The blue jello rhythm puzzles are a set of two durable foam puzzles, each measuring 8.5" x 12". The puzzles are ideal for teachers and parents to teach rhythm math and reading rhythms in all teaching situations. One puzzle is dark blue and one is bright blue. Puzzle pieces are to be intermixed to create one puzzle with a dark blue background and bright blue pieces and one puzzle with a bright blue back ground and dark blue pieces. This makes it easy and exciting for students and teacher to see the possibilities for rhythms. With a total of 98 puzzle pieces, there are endless possibilities for making rhythms.
The blue jello rhythm puzzle, which originally was available from 1992 – 2005, was one of the most popular items in the original Warner Bros. materials. Now teachers and parents who have wanted a puzzle need to look no further. These puzzles have been completely updated and revised by Michiko, making it possible to make single notes and rests, combinations of rhythms such as "jel-lo jel-lo" (four eighth notes) and "gooseberry" (eighth note and two sixteenth notes) and even complex rhythms such as "celery" (sixteenth note triplet), "huckleberry lo" (four sixteenth notes and one eighth note), and "macadamia" (sixteenth note quintuplet). The puzzles are a hit with individual lessons, group classes and in the classroom.
If you've been lucky enough to have the original Warner Bros. puzzle, you'll want to upgrade to this fully revised set of two puzzles.
