Heavenly Father and Your Beloved Son Jesus
Christ, Thank you for another life to enjoy,
another day to learn, and a new set of things we
will experience. As we go through our lessons
today, may let us be instruments to do good
things. Help us be obedient, honest, and kind to
one another. Amen.

Rhythm is one important element that musicians of all types
have to adapt with their passion for music.
In this quarter, you will learn rhythm
as one of the elements of music. Rhythm is
the regular flow of music through time. It is
the life of music. It is observed and felt in the
movements of humans and animals, in the
swaying of trees and in running vehicles. In
order for you to fully understand rhythm; you
need to learn its elements such as pulse,
tempo and meter.
What’s New
Music is made up of different kinds
of notes and rests to represent
duration of sounds and silence. They
are used in making compositions.
Notes are symbols for sounds in music
and rests are symbols for silence.
Kinds of Notes and Rests
Do you know how songwriters create a
composition?
If you are going to compose a song,
how will you make it?
In writing a song, a songwriter uses
notes and rests and places them on a staff
along with other musical symbols.
