different songs.’’

‘’That’s right! As you can see, slow tempo is
commonly used in lullabies, sad songs, love songs,

(The pupils will do the Wow clap.)

‘’Now, let’s listen to another set of songs.’’

(Play different songs with fast tempo.) (The pupils will listen to the song.)

‘’What do you notice to the song?’’ ‘’The song has a fast tempo.’’

‘’Exactly! We can observe that the fast tempo is

commonly used in happy, dance, and party songs.’’
