I have created another fun rhythm game called WipeOut. WipeOut is an easy game for all grade levels to play. I will be using the game with 2nd - 5th grade. I will first use it in class to introduce the game to the students. I will divide them into 2 teams and we will play throughout the lesson.
Materials Needed:
1. 4 player card (available in the download)
2. 40 turtles. I bought little plastic turtles from my local teacher store. You can use other materials: buttons, beans, bingo chips, etc.
3. 2, 1" wooden cubes (can get these at your local teacher store). The download includes the images for the dice to print and cut out. Just glue them on or print them onto an Avery full sheet label page.
How to Play:
Step 1: each player will need one player card and 10 turtles
Step 2: each player places their 10 turtles on their player card. They can put them on any square they want.

Here is a sample of what it can look like.
Step 3: The first player rolls the dice and either removes some turtles off their board or they might get to add a turtle to another payer's board.
Here are some samples of different dice rolls and an explanation of what you would do:

 I would then remove one turtle from the 4 sixteenth column and one turtle from the half note column. |  I would remove one turtle from the sixteenth note column and then I can pick any turtle I want. |  I would remove one turtle from the two eighth note column and then I would put one turtle on one of my opponent's board. |  I would put one turtle on two of my opponent's board. You cannot put more than one turtle on a player's board. |
After you remove a turtle you must read the rhythm that is under the turtle. If another player catches you reading the rhythm wrong or forgetting to read the rhythm, then you have to put the turtle back on your board.
The goal of the game is to be the first player to "WipeOut" their board.
