A. Preliminary Activities

Teacher’s Activity Pupil’s Activity

Good morning class! Good morning Maam!

How are you today? We are fine, thank you! How about you?

I’m fine too!

Everybody sit. Arrange your chair properly

and pick the pieces of paper.

Checking of attendance

1. Review Ma’am, our lesson yesterday is all about

dynamics.
Before going on our new lesson for
today. Who remember the lesson
we had discussed yesterday?

Very good! Let’s clap our hands.

 2. Motivation
Class, I have here pictures of animals and Yes, Ma’am!
I want you to identify each of them. Do you
understand, class?

What animal is these:

Dog

Turtle

Rabbit

Bird

Cat

Wow! Very good!

B. Developmental Activities/ Presentation

Now, how do these animals move? The dog runs,

The turtle crawls
The rabbit hops.
The cat jumps
The birds fly.

Excellent! Let’s give them a rain clap.

 C. Discussion

Our lesson for today is about tempo in Ma’am, the speed of music like fast,
music. Who among you know what is moderate and slow is what we called as
tempo? tempo.

That’s right! Tempo is how fast or slow the

music is, tempos help the composer to
convey a feeling of either intensity or
relaxation.

Now, we will have an activity. Form 5

groups and choose your leader.

What you’re going to do is to imitate the Group 1 – Spread arms as if flying (bird)
movement of the animal that will be Group 2 – Jump (cat)
assigned to you. Perform in front of the Group 3 – Run fast in place (dog)
class. Group 4 – Glide/crawl (turtle)
Group 5 – Hop (rabbit)

(Performing)

What a great performance, class!

Tempo can be defined as the pace or

speed at which section of music is played.
It helps convey a feeling of either intensity
or relaxation.

Tempo has three different movements.

Fast tempo, it is a speed of tempo in which

it gets faster or higher beats.

Moderate tempo, it is the speed in music in

between the fast and slow tempo. It
connotes relaxation in music.

Slow tempo, is generally slow, reserved for

broadly played music and used to denote
emotional and slow tone.

Speed of music can be shown through

different animal movements and songs.

D. Generalization

The tempo can have virtually any amount

of beats per minute. The lower the number
of beats per minute, the slower the tempo
will be. Inversely, the higher the number of
beats per minute, the faster the tempo will
be. Do you understand, class?

So let’s have another activity.

This time, I have here separate flashcards

for each group and you are going to guess
what tempo can we used to compare the
movements of the following animals. Paste Group 1
your answer on the board opposite to each 1. Moderate
other. (Select from FAST, SLOW and
MODERATE) 2. Fast

3. Slow
- Bird – fly
4. Fast

- Dog – run 5. Slow

- Turtle – crawl
Group 2
- Horse – gallop 1. Moderate

2. Fast
- Carabao – walk
3. Slow

4. Fast

5. Slow

Group 3
1. Moderate

2. Fast

3. Slow

4. Fast

5. Slow

Group 4

3. Slow

4. Fast

Wonderful work, everyone! 5. Slow

Group 5
1. Moderate

2. Fast

3. Slow

4. Fast
 5. Slow

E. Application

Tempo can be shown through different

movements. Can you name it class?

Yes, very good!

Now, get 1/4 piece of paper and identify

the movement of the following pictures that
I’m going to show.

On your paper, write F for fast, S for slow

and M for moderate.

1. S

2. F

3. M

4. F

5. S

- Great job, class!

 IV. Evaluation

2. Fly slowly like a bird in tempo, in any

direction.

3. Gallop fast like a horse.

4. Walk slowly like a duck in a straight line.
