1) Work out how many beats these musical sums add up to:
Class

a) + + + = b) + + =

c) + ++ = d)  + + =

e) + + = f)  + +  + =

2) Work out these sums. Watch out ! (+, - or x)

a)-  = b) - =

c) x = d)  x  =

e) +  + + = f) +  + + =

3) Now make up some of your own sums and test your partner:

a) b)

c) d)

e) f)
