Introductory Message
This Self-Learning Module (SLM) is prepared so that you, our dear
learners, can continue your studies and learn while at home. Activities,
questions, directions, exercises, and discussions are carefully stated for you
to understand each lesson.
Each SLM is composed of different parts. Each part shall guide you
step-by-step as you discover and understand the lesson prepared for you.
Pre-tests are provided to measure your prior knowledge on lessons in
each SLM. This will tell you if you need to proceed on completing this module
or if you need to ask your facilitator or your teacher's assistance for better
understanding of the lesson. At the end of each module, you need to answer
the post-test to self-check your learning. Answer keys are provided for each
activity and test. We trust that you will be honest in using these.
In addition to the material in the main text, Notes to the Teacher are
also provided to our facilitators and parents for strategies and reminders on
how they can best help you on your home-based learning.
Please use this module with care. Do not put unnecessary marks on
any part of this SLM. Use a separate sheet of paper in answering the exercises
and tests. And read the instructions carefully before performing each tack.
If you have any questions in using this SLM or any difficulty in
answering the tasks in this module, do not hesitate to consult your teacher
or facilitator.
Thank you.

What I Need to Know
This module was designed and written with you in mind. It is here to help you
master how to create rhythmic patterns. The scope of this module permits it to be
used in many different learning situations. The language used recognizes the diverse
vocabulary level of students. The lessons are arranged to follow the standard
sequence of the course. But the order in which you read them can be changed to
correspond with the module you are now using.
The module has only one lesson with the title:
• Lesson 1 – Creating Rhythmic Patterns in and Time Signatures
• Lesson 2 – Creating Rhythmic Patterns in Time Signature
After going through this module, you are expected to:
1. create rhythmic patterns in and time signatures; and
2. create rhythmic patterns in time signature

Lesson
1
Creating Rhythmic Patterns
in and Time Signatures
You have learned the basic concepts about the element of rhythm in the past
lessons like counting the time values of notes and rests and how to divide them into
measures. These skills will help you in creating rhythmic patterns in varied time
signatures.
In order to read, identify and transcribe rhythms, you need to be familiar with
rhythm notation and rhythmic patterns.
We create rhythmic and melodic patterns in composing a song. Today, you will
learn how to create rhythmic patterns in different time signatures.
What’s In
Direction: Given the indicated time signature, conduct the rhythmic patterns
according to the value of each note or rest in each measure.

What’s New
Rhythmic Patterns
The basic method by which you can learn rhythm is by clapping or tapping the
beat. Rhythmic pattern is a combination of notes and rests based on a time
signature.
In learning rhythm, each note has an equivalent rhythmic syllable, which
helps in understanding rhythmic pattern in an easier and interesting way.
Note Symbol Rhythmic Syllable
whole note ta-a-a-a
dotted half note ta-a-a
half note ta-a
quarter note ta
eighth note ti
sixteenth note ti-ri-ti-ri
Notes to the Teacher
This module is designed for independent or self-
paced study. It allows the learners to learn by
considering their convenience for time and or location
according to his or her individual needs and ability.
Learners can study at his/her preferred time and
environment without undue interruption of work. Please
make sure learners who use this material can get
frequent feedback and are given the opportunity to
reflect on information and on their learning experiences.

What’s More
In music, rhythmic pattern also refers to the even or uneven combination of
the duration of sounds. An even rhythmic pattern shows a steady beat. An uneven
rhythmic pattern is sounded if there is a combination of long and short sounds
using different kinds of notes.
A.
1. Clap the rhythmic pattern showing steady beats.
2. Tap the uneven rhythmic pattern while counting the number patterns.
In learning rhythm, each note has an equivalent rhythmic syllable,
which helps in understanding rhythmic pattern in an easier and interesting

Lesson
2
Creating Rhythmic Patterns
in Time Signature
Patterns in music follow a specific rhythm. To understand this further, you need
to learn the different kinds of notes and rests and their time values.
In the last lesson, you have learned how to create rhythmic patterns in the basic
time signatures.
This lesson focuses on creating rhythmic patterns in time signature. Always
remember that in creating rhythmic patterns, it is important to count the time values
of notes and rests according to the time signature.

Directions: Draw the missing rest on the space to complete the rhythmic patterns
below. Write your answer on a separate sheet of paper.

What’s New
Rhythmic Patterns
Every time signature has a basic rhythmic pattern. The rhythmic pattern is a
group of notes divided into measures called bar lines. In time signature, there
are six beats in a measure and an eighth note ( ) receives one beat. It has the
counting pattern of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6.
In creating rhythmic patterns in time signature, it is important to count the
time values of notes and rests. You have already learned this in lesson three.
