Pupils needing extra support

Could focus only on the forest floor rhythms, which are more straightforward; could try combining groups, once they are confident with these so that these children can play with others who are also playing the understorey rhythms.

Pupils working at greater depth

Could create their own understorey rhythms that work with the forest floor rhythms. (If children took part in the Kapow Instrumental lessons last year, they will be able to write down these rhythms, and use a greater range of notes – quavers, crotchets, minims, semibreves and rests.)
