In fact, this learning material improved their ability when they later had musical, vocal. and instrumental practices. The teacher then found some solutions to solve this problem: I) explaining the form and the value of notes to the students such as about the symbol and the duration of full notes, half notes, quarter notes, and eighth notes: 2) explaining and providing examples or beats to the students such as quarter beats or eighth heats: 3) explaining the relationship of time signature (in meters) and heats such as second, third. and fourth meter: 4) explaining the differences of low and up beats and providing examples on how to read the first, second, third, and fourth notes: 5) explaining, and providing examples of units or groups of note: 6) providing examples of' rhythm patterns from the song that was taught to the students as welI as providing examples of rhythm patterns for each phrase of
