Rhythm

The sixteenth note looks like a quarter note with two tales. In common time it is worth one fourth of a beat ( 1/4 )
After the sixteenth note is a sixteenth rest, an eighth rest, a quarter rest and a half rest.

4 Notes


We counted eighth notes as 1 & 2 &. We will count sixteenth notes as 1 e & a 2 e & a. We have added a note before and after the &.
