Free PDF + editable BoboCreate template
Free Rhythm Case: The Dot Adds Half
A dot adds half the note's value: dotted half 3 beats, dotted quarter 1½. Count, check and fill bars of 4/4.
Both downloads are the free edition. The .bobo file opens in BoboCreate Desktop.
The editable file imports in BoboCreate Free 0.3.19 or later. It uses one of Free's three design places, and its own artwork does not count toward your three uploaded images. Older versions of the app need BoboCreate activated to import it, so update BoboCreate first.
The first case of Dots & Ties Duration Cases, complete and free.
Every beat count is worked out from the same rhythm records as the pages.
What the free template includes
- A story and a Learn box about dotted notes
- A beats task, a bar check and a fill-the-bar puzzle
- Answers with a reason for each
Half again as long
A dot adds half of a note's value: 2 + 1 = 3, 1 + ½ = 1½.
