Our topic today is all about
UNDERSTANDING MELODY.
Now, when you here the word melody what Pupils answered

Very well, children.
In music, melody is about the succession of
tones heard in a song.
In musical piece, it is the part of the musical Pupils listened
composition which discusses to the up and
down movement of tones placed on the
staff.
Now class, melody has three major scales.
1. Key of C Major- It is the major scale which
is one of the most used key.
The C Major scale is known for its simplicity
and has no sharps or flats. It serves as a
common starting point for many beginners
in music theory and playing musical
instruments.

Its simple
What do you observed in the music? C Major
So what was the key signature of this song
again?
Very good.
2. Key of G Major- It is a major scale that
uses one sharp (#).
This gives it a distinctive sound compared to
the C Major scale, which has no sharps or
flats. The key of G Major is commonly used
in a wide range of music, and it's a favorite
key for many musicians, especially those
who play string instruments like the guitar
and violin.
Pupils answered
Ex. Leron, Leron Sinta
What do you observed in the music? G Major

distinct musical character.

thoughts class?
Now class, if there is no melody in a certain
music how can we sing it?
We cannot sing it class and the singers can't
convey their emotions and messages.
Without melody a music is just like a poem No teacher.
