Very Good! Children because there were no

B. Priming
1. Motivation
Let’s have a simple activity entitled “Sound
or Silence.” I will give you this placard with
pictures of a whistle and a quiet emoji.
Whenever I show picture that denotes sound,
raise the whistle placard. And when I show
picture that denotes silence, raise the quiet Yes, Sir, we are.
emoji.
Are you ready?
Here’s the first picture.
Very Good! This picture denotes sound.
Next picture.
Great! The picture shows a baby that is
sleeping that indicates silence.
How about this third picture?
That is right! The picture shows bird that is
chirping. It denotes sound.
Let’s move on with the fourth picture.
Very Good! The baby in picture is crying and
it produces sound.
We are down with our last picture.
Great! This picture denotes silence because
when we are praying we should be quiet.
Good Job! Children. I see that everyone is
familiar with the pictures that denote sound
and silence. That is why you deserve to have
the GOOD JOB Clap. It goes like this
G! Double O! D! J! O! B! Good Job! Good
Job! Hey! Good Job! Good Job! Hey!
Follow me, everyone.
C. Development of the Lesson
1. Presentation
Just like in our simple activity there are
symbols that denote sounds and silences. In
music, there are symbols that indicate sounds
and silences. It is important to know the
relationship between these symbols to
interpret music.
Do you have any idea about the symbols in
music that represent sounds and silences?
Very Good!
2. Discussion
Our topic today in Music is all about the
Symbols of Sound and Silent Durations.
G! Double O! D! J! O! B! Good Job! Good
Job! Hey! Good Job! Good Job! Hey!
First, let us define what is notes?
Can you please read the definition of notes?
Very Good!
These musical symbols are the one we heard
when we play music. Did you know that a
note has its part?
Let us label the parts of a note.
Let’s begin with the note head. Can you
please point on our note where is the note
head?
The musical symbols that represent sounds
and silences are notes and rests.
That’s correct! That part is the note head.
There are two types of note head- the open
note head and the close note head. When we
say open note head, that part is unshaded. On
the other hand, when we say closed note head
that part is shaded.
Let us move on with the next part and that is
the stem. Please go to the board and point the
stem of a note.
Notes are symbols of sound duration.
The last part of note is the flag or hook.
Please point the flag of a note.
These are the parts of a note, the note head,
the stem, and the flag or hook.
Let us move on with the kinds of notes.
I will show the picture of the notes and you
are going to describe its appearance. Here’s
the first note.
Nice! This musical note is what we called the
whole note. Whole note has the longest sound
duration with four beats.
Let us proceed to the next musical note.
Great! This musical note is the half note. As
the name implies, its duration is half the
duration of a whole note.
How about this third musical note?
Very Good! This musical note is the quarter
note. It receives one beat.
Here’s the fourth musical note.
That’s great! This is the eighth note. This note
receives ½ beat.
It has open note head part only.
We are down at the last musical note.
Very Good! This is what we called the
sixteenth note. This note receives ¼ beat.
It has open note head with a stem.
These are the musical notes. The whole note,
half note, quarter note, eighth note, and the
sixteenth note.
Remember that music is not only about sound
durations. The beauty of musical patterns also
relies on the silent durations that musicians
observe.
Let us move on with the musical rests. Can
you please define what is musical rests?
Thank you! There are also five kinds of It has closed note head with a stem.
musical rests. Here is the first kind.
What did you observe with the appearance of
the whole rest?
Nice observation. The whole rest has 4 beats
of silence. It has closed note head, stem, and a flag or
hook.
How about this next kind of musical rest?
Very Good! This is the half rest. Half rest has
2 beats of silence.
It has close note head, a stem, and two flags
Let us proceed to the third kind of musical or hook.
rest.
This symbol is the quarter rest. It receives 1
beat of silence.
This symbol is the quarter rest. It receives 1
beat of silence.
How about this fourth musical rest. How will
you describe this musical rest?
These are musical symbols for silence.
Very Good! This is the eight rest. Eighth rest
receives ½ beat of silence.
This is the last kind of musical rest. How will
you describe this symbol?
Looks like a hat placed upside down.
Great! This is the sixteenth rest and it receives
¼ beat of silence.
These are the kinds of musical rests. The
whole rest, half rest, quarter rest, eighth rest,
and the sixteenth rest.
It looks like a hat in an upright position.
3. Generalization
