When explaining 6/8 time signatures to students you need to review what the top and bottom numbers of a time signature refer to. The top number refers to the number of beats per measure and the bottom number refers to the value of the beats. For example in 4/4 a quarter note (4) gets one beat and there are 4 beats (4) in one measure; in 6/8 an eighth note (8) gets one beat and there are six beats (6) in one measure.
