1. Rhythmic patterns are groupings of long and short sounds in a given meter, with mastery of beat, meter, measure, and bar lines being important for constructing and performing rhythmic patterns. 2. Time signatures indicate the number of beats in a measure and which note receives one beat, guiding musicians in correct rhythm and timing. Simple time signatures have 2, 3, or 4 beats per measure while compound signatures like 6/8 double the time value of notes and rests. 3. The document discusses simple and compound time signatures, provides rhythmic pattern examples for different signatures, and includes assessment and enrichment activities to solidify understanding of constructing rhythms based on time signatures.

2. What is Rhythmic patterns?
Rhythmic patterns are groupings of long and
short sounds in a given meter. Mastery of beat, meter,
measure, and bar lines are important in constructing
and performing rhythmic patterns.
The regular occurring pulse that you hear and
feel in a composition is called beat. It is the heartbeat
of music, Meter, on the other hand, is the grouping of
notes and rests as units. It may have two, three, or four
beats placed in a measure.
Creates rhythmic patterns in and
time signatures (MU6RH-Ig-h-5)

3. Below are the kinds of meter that group notes and rests
to form a Rhythmic pattern
* DUPLE METER has two beats in a measure.
* TRIPLE METER has three beats in a measure.
* QUADRUPLE METER has four beats in a measure

4. Can you still remember the different time
signatures you learned in the past?
Simple Time signature is the number written
at the beginning of the staff after the clef sign. The
upper number tells us the number of beats in
every measure while the lower number indicates
the kind of note that receives one beat. The time
signature will guide the musician in performing a
musical piece in correct rhythm and timing.

5. 1. Time signature indicates that there
are two beats in every measure and every
quarter note ( ) receives one beat.
Study the rhythmic pattern below.
What are the most common time signature in
music?

6. 2. Time signature indicates that there are
three beats in every measure and every quarter
note ( ) receives one beat. Clap the rhythmic
pattern below based on the time signature

7. 3. Time signature indicates that there are
four beats in every measure and every quarter
note ( ) receives one beat.

8. 4. A compound Time signature like
time signature doubles the original time value
of the notes and rests.

16. Now that you learned how to create rhythmic patterns in different simple
time signatures and compound time signature.
Also learned that Rhythmic patterns are groupings of long and short
sounds in a given meter. Mastery of beat, meter, measure, and bar lines are
important in constructing and performing rhythmic patterns.
The regular occurring pulse that you hear and feel in a composition is
called beat. It is the heartbeat of music, Meter, on the other hand, is the
grouping of notes and rests as units. It may have two, three, or four beats
placed in a measure.
You learned that musical sumbols , when arranged and combined
properly create beautiful music and these notes and rests are grouped
accordingly means of time signature that signifies the meter of particular
song.
Simple Time signature is the number written at the beginning of the
staff after the clef sign. The upper number tells us the number of beats in
every measure while the lower number indicates the kind of note that
receives one beat. The time signature will guide the musician in performing a
musical piece in correct rhythm and timing.
SUMMARY

17. 1. Time signature indicates that there are two
beats in every measure and every quarter note ( )
receives one beat.
2. Time signature indicates that there are three
beats in every measure and every quarter note ( )
receives one beat. Clap the rhythmic pattern below
based on the time signature
3. Time signature indicates that there are four beats
in every measure and every quarter note ( ) receives
one beat.
4. A compound Time signature like time
signature doubles the original time value of the notes
and rests.
