Rhythm Patterns in 2nd grade!

2nd graders are working on rhythms and figuring out how many Ta and Titi patterns they can create within 4 beats (one 4/4 measure).

Using large, colorful popsicle sticks and paper, each partner group identified as many rhythm patterns and they could think of and wrote each one down to keep track.

As a class, we figured out that there is a way to discover exactly how many rhythm patterns we can create within our parameters...can you figure it out?
