W H PATTERN for Scales
You will need to look at the piano for this activity (or draw a keyboard on your paper).
On a piece of paper, write the patter of Half and Whole steps for a Major scale. Use C Major as a reference since it has no black keys.
For example, if the scale goes D E F G, then the pattern would be W H W (that’s not the right one though!)
On a piece of paper, write the patter of Half and Whole steps for a Harmonic Minor scale. Use A minor as a reference since it is related to C. (For the step that is bigger than a whole step, write WH together.)
TIME SIGNATURE
On a separate sheet of paper, write down what each of the numbers in these time signatures mean:
2 3 4
4 4 4
If you do not know how to tell what these numbers mean, look at this Time Signature Document.
