Let’s go through each question one by one.
---
Question 1:
The note shown has a filled-in oval (note head) and a stem going up. That’s the shape of a
quarter note.
- Whole Note = empty oval, no stem → not this.
- Quarter Note = filled oval + stem → YES.
✔ So, answer is
B: Quarter Note
---
Question 2:
This note has an empty oval (not filled in) and a stem. That’s the shape of a
half note.
- Half Note = empty oval + stem → YES.
- Quarter Note = filled oval + stem → not this.
✔ So, answer is
A: Half Note
---
Question 3:
This note is just an empty oval — no stem at all. That’s a
whole note.
- Half Note = empty oval + stem → not this.
- Whole Note = empty oval, no stem → YES.
✔ So, answer is
B: Whole Note
---
Question 4:
It says “Count my rhythm.” and shows the same whole note as in Question 3.
In music, a
whole note gets
4 beats when counting in common time (4/4).
So you would count:
“1 - 2 - 3 - 4” (holding the sound for all four counts)
✔ Answer: Count it as
4 beats — say “1, 2, 3, 4” while holding the note.

Final Answer:
1. B
2. A
3. B
4. Count as 4 beats (“1, 2, 3, 4”)
