Resumen

El aspecto rítmico es fundamental dentro de la clase de Educación Musical en la escuela. El objetivo de este artículo ha sido recoger las opiniones del profesorado de música chileno, en relación con el abordaje de elementos rítmicos -pulso isócrono, tempo, metro (acento métrico) y frases o patrones rítmicos- en tercer y cuarto año de Educación Primaria. Para este propósito, se realizaron dos grupos focales. Uno de los grupos estuvo constituido por 6 docentes iniciales (3-4 años de servicio) y el otro, fue conformado por 5 docentes avanzados o expertos (más de 12 años de servicio). Los resultados muestran que los medios utilizados con mayor frecuencia son el movimiento corporal y el lenguaje verbal, los cuales se trabajan considerando principalmente audiciones relacionadas con las preferencias musicales y experiencias previas del alumnado. Hacia el futuro, resulta importante potenciar los elementos señalados para la enseñanza musical y continuar analizando la praxis del profesorado de música en relación con la enseñanza del ritmo en el aula.
