Body percussion- Jumping to the rhythm

Game description: The teacher has different colored cards and on each of them he writes a simple rhythmic motif that he also associates with a word, value or short phrase and that is executed with a specific part of the body. Each of the students designs the same cards as well. The students then place the cards on the floor in random order. Then the teacher performs one of the rhythmic schemes and the students have to figure out which one was played and quickly jump over the card that contains the rhythm (If done virtually, students only have to hold up the card they think is the correct). The first student to jump on the card or pick up the correct one must then make rhythm with their body and say the word that appears on it.
