OVERVIEW

Welcome to Module 1! This module will expose you to the different kinds of musical

which is Rhythm. This element in music is very significant because all the basic musical
concepts like beat and timing are included in this lesson.

At the end of this module, you are expected to:

a. identify the notes and rests used in a particular song.

b. apply the value of each note and rest (number of beats) through hand
clapping
c. show importance and respect to others

o General Before you go further, you should remember

Instruction the following:

 Do not put some markings on this Module as there are still other students who will be
using it. Use a separate notebook as a REFLECTIVE JOURNAL to keep your answer in
each activity. Be sure to LABEL your work according to the Module, lessons and the
date you work on it.
 Each Module has a brief instruction and followed by a list of objectives. Read them and
follow instructions carefully.
 Before going over the activities, answer the PRE-TEST first then find out how well you
did by checking your answers given in the self-assessment activity. Each activity must
be according to the objectives of this Module. Note the skills or strategies you tried to
develop.

After each activity, you need to go over the items which you think you failed. Take the POST
TEST when you think you have mastered all the activities.

 What I Need to Know

At the end of the lesson, you are expected to:

1. identify the values of the notes and rests used in a particular song.
2. apply the value of each note and rest (number of beats) through hand
clapping
3. show the importance of respect to others

What I Know

Give the value of each note and rest

 What’s In

In your previous lesson, Music is composed of different elements like rhythm,

melody, harmony, texture, form, tempo, dynamics, and timbre. Among these elements,
rhythm is the first element which you are going to learn in music. In this lesson you will be
refreshed with what you have learned from the past on the first element of music which is the
rhythm, specifically, the different kinds of symbols of notes and rests and the value of each
symbol. You will have some fun through hand clapping and stomping of feet as your first
musical instrument to present the number of beats in every note or rest.

Identify the following notes and rests. Write the corresponding name of each symbol
and choose your answer from the box.

3
What’s New

Examine the song entitled “Mahal kong Bayan”.

 What are the symbols of notes used in this song?

 What are the symbols of rests found in the song?

4
 What is It

In music, a note denotes musical sound. Notes can represent the pitch and

duration of a sound in musical notation. On the other hand, rest denotes duration of silence.
Each note and rest have its value or what we called number of beats. The duration of
sound or silence depends on each value of beat. The higher the number, the longer is the
duration. Below is the illustration of the different kinds of note and rest and their
corresponding number of beats.

To give emphasis on the value of every note, you will use hand clapping.

 For the whole note ( ) which has 4 beats you will clap once and prolong until
in the 4th count by saying the syllable ta-a-a-a or simply count (1 2 3 4).

 Half note ( ) which has 2 beats, you will clap once and prolong until in the
nd
2 count by saying the syllable TA-A or simply count (1 2).

5
  The quarter note ( ) which has the value of 1 beat, you will stomp your foot
once with the syllable TA or simply count (1).

 The eighth note ( ) which has the value of ½ beat because there are two

eighth notes ( ) in one quarter note ( ), you sway your hips from left to
right and simultaneously say the two syllables TI-TI or simply count (1 and).

 Sixteenth note ( ) which has the value of ¼ beat because there are four

sixteenth notes ( ) in one quarter note ( ),you strike twice

the table using your ballpen or stick as your percussion instrument and
simultaneously saying the four syllables TI-RI-TI-RI or simply count this
counting pattern (1 a and a).

What were used to show silence?

To show the value of every rest, the same counting must be given but instead of
making sound, you have to show silence by simply open your palm

6
Going back to the last two measures of the song, have you seen a dotted noted?
What is its value?

 Dotted Note – it is a note followed by a dot.

A dot that is placed after the note to indicate a change in the duration of a note. The
dot adds half of the value of the note to itself.

For example, a dotted quarter note gets 1 ½ beats because the value of a quarter

note is 1, half of 1 is ½, so 1 + ½ = 1 ½. The same value is applied in a dotted quarter rest
( ).

Dotted Quarter Note

1 + ½ = 1 ½ is the value or the number of beats

A dotted half note gets 3 beats because the value of a half note is 2, half of 2 is 1

so 2 + 1 = 3. The same value is applied in a dotted half rest ( ).

Dotted Half Note

2 + 1 = 3 is the value or the number of beats
