UNIT 2: WEEK

5: MUSIC AND
ARTS
 01
MUSIC: KEY
SIGNATURE OF E
MAJOR AND B
MAJOR
 OBJECTIVES
At the end of the module, you are expected to:
• Identify the key signatures of E Major and B
Major.
• Recognize the notes in E Major and B Major
Scales
 E MAJOR SCALE
The E Major scale starts with its tonic note E or MI
followed by F# or FA#, G# or SO#, A or LA, B or TI, C# or
DO and D# or RE#. The key signature of the E Major
scale has 4 sharps, starting with the 5th line, 3rd space,
above the 5th line, and the 4th line of the G-Clef staff. For
the F-Clef, the E major scale will start at the 4th line
followed by the 2nd space, 4th space, and then, 3rd line.
 B MAJOR SCALE
The B Major scale starts with its tonic note B or TI followed by
C# or DO#, D# or RE#, E or MI, F# or FA#, G# or SO# and A#
or LA#. The key signature of B Major scale has 5 sharps,
starting with the 5th line, 3rd space, above the 5th line, 4th line,
and the 2nd space of the G-Clef staff. For the F-Clef staff, the B
major scale will start at the 4th line followed by the 2nd space,
4th space, 3rd line and then 1st space
 To sum up all the key signatures in
major scale:

Key signatures in music are the arrangement of

accidentals (sharps and flats) on the lines and
spaces of the musical staff. The key signature
indicates that the notes in every octave will be
consistently be raised or lowered from their
natural pitches regardless of clef symbols.

ARTS:DIGITAL LAY
OUTING
 OBJECTIVES
At the end of the module, you are expected
to:
• Identify the different principles of lay outing.
• Create a simple layout design using simple
applications available.
Digital lay outing is a process of placing all the required elements of a given
subject in a digital format rather than making the layout using a non-digital
platform like pen and paper. In this process, the objects and elements to be laid
out can easily be adjusted, resized, replaced, or recolored to fit into the desired
layout outcome
Digital lay outing can be used in many different forms
such as websites, print advertisements, book covers,
posters, tarpaulins, magazines, and many more
PRINCIPLES OF DIGITAL OF
DIGITAL LAY OUTING
1. Proximity - proximity is the distance between objects that
are related to each other. It is done to show relevance by
bringing the related objects closer together

2. Alignment - this technique is used to improve the aesthetic appearance of

the design as well as the readability of its components, meaning the concept
and designs can easily be recognized and understood by the people.
Arranging the elements in such a way that the message of the design can
easily be understood, thus creating a balance between the objects of your
concept.
3. Repetition - is a technique that can be identified by the term
itself. Repeating patterns and other elements in a design can
stress out the idea of the concept

4. Contrast - this is to emphasize the difference between

the elements or objects in a design. It is also used to add
distinctiveness to an individual element
IMPORTANCE OF DIGITAL OF
DIGITAL LAY OUTING
A well-designed layout makes the information it contains easy to
consume. It's a fundamental part of any piece of visual
communication.
