Let’s go row by row and count the objects, then match them to the correct note value.
In music:
- A
quarter note (filled-in head with stem) = 1 beat → matches 1 object
- A
half note (open head with stem) = 2 beats → matches 2 objects
- A
dotted half note (open head + dot) = 3 beats → matches 3 objects
- A
whole note (open head, no stem) = 4 beats → matches 4 objects
Now let’s solve each row:
---
Row 1: 1 lemon
→ Need a note that equals 1 → quarter note (first one)
Row 2: 3 oranges
→ Need a note that equals 3 → dotted half note (last one in this row)
Row 3: 2 avocados
→ Need a note that equals 2 → half note (third one in this row)
Row 4: 1 watermelon slice
→ Need a note that equals 1 → quarter note (second one in this row)
Row 5: 2 apples
→ Need a note that equals 2 → half note (second one in this row)
Row 6: 4 pears
→ Need a note that equals 4 → whole note (second one in this row)
---
Final Answer:
Row 1: Circle the first note (quarter note)
Row 2: Circle the last note (dotted half note)
Row 3: Circle the third note (half note)
Row 4: Circle the second note (quarter note)
Row 5: Circle the second note (half note)
Row 6: Circle the second note (whole note)
