CMEA Music Education Through Technology Representative
4four is full of rhythm activities and generators, as well as digital instrument activities. I use it to practice rhythms with my general music classes, reinforce and test rhythmic knowledge, and offer opportunities for my students to be creative.
From dice to memory, the apps are designed to be editable (to allow for differentiation) and easy to use (students can use them independently). There are even mini sequencers and loopers with which to play!

We are excited to share that NAfME state leaders, advocates, and members of the Music Education Policy Roundtable returned to Capitol Hill on June 23 for our first in-person Hill Day since 2019. Attendees met with their members of Congress to advocate on behalf of music education and the teaching profession. Hill Day is not limited to members in the DC area, we encourage members at home to reach out to their representatives using this campaign to add their voice in support of music education!
