diverse vocabulary level of students. The lessons are arranged to follow the
standard sequence of the course. But the order in which you read them can
be changed to correspond with the textbook you are now using.

The module will discuss on how to create rhythmic patterns.

2. Drawing is large enough to see.

3. Drawing is neat and clean.

What’s In
Look at the picture and sing the sofa syllables following the Kodaly
method.

You can create good music when you group the notes and rests in their
correct timing. When you group these notes and rests, you create a rhythmic
pattern. These rhythmic patterns determine the movement and flow of music.
Rhythmic pattern is the combination of notes and rests in a given meter. It
is the combination of long and short duration of sounds and silences
or with different time values.
In this lesson you will learn how to create rhythmic patterns of the
different time signatures.

Direction: Look at the diagrams below and perform the conducting

patterns.

 What’s New

Directions: Look at the pictures below.

What is in the picture?

Have you watched a parade presentation during Municipal Fiesta?

Do you want to be with them in a parade?
What do you feel everytime you hear the beat of the drum?

Is it exciting? Does it make you feel like dancing, clapping, and

marching?

Directions: Look at the pictures below.

 What can you say about the pictures?
Do they create rhythm?
Based on the pictures, we have learned a rhythmic pattern by clapping
or tapping a steady bear with a combination of notes and rests.

What is It

Rhythmic patterns can be created by combining notes and rests in a

repeated manner.

1.) Rhythmic pattern of two (2) beats

1st Measure 2nd Measure 3rd Measure

Note:
6 is another time signature. This is a compound meter wherein an
8
