1. The Treble Clef

2. Let’s start with a staff: A staff is five lines and the four spaces that are in between. __________________________________ __________________________________ __________________________________ __________________________________ __________________________________

3. If you put a line on each side of a staff….. Then you get what’s called a measure! __________________________________ I_________________________________I I_________________________________I I_________________________________I I_________________________________I

4. Measures then form the lines that we put the music on I-----------------------------I-------------------------------I--------------------------------I----------------------------II I-----------------------------I-------------------------------I--------------------------------I----------------------------II I-----------------------------I-------------------------------I--------------------------------I----------------------------II These measures and lines are used for treble OR bass clef!
