QUARTER 1 MODULE 1-4
MAPEH 6: MUSIC
After going through this lesson, you are
expected to:

1. Identify the notes/rest and its value

2. Identify the basic parts of musical staff
3. Create rhythmic patterns in 2/4, 3/4
and 4/4 time signatures

Staff
• 5 Lines and 4 spaces that music is written
on.
Measure
 Divides the staff into smaller units of
measure by using bar lines
Bar Line

Measure
Time Signature
The time signature (also known as meter
signature or measure signature) is used in
Western musical notation to specify how
many beats are grouped in a measure and
which note will be equivalent to a beat.
TIME SIGNATURE
MAPEH 6: MUSIC

Rhythmic patterns
Rhythmic pattern is a combination of
notes and rests based on a time signature.

ACTIVITY 1
Create two measures of rhythmic patterns in and
time signatures using different notes and rests. Use
even rhythmic pattern for the first measure and
uneven rhythmic pattern for the second measure.
