  1. Learning how to write music.

  2. First, we must draw a staff. A staff consists of five lines and four spaces. 5 4 3 2 1 Notice we count from bottom to top.

  3. To draw a half note, you begin with the oval.

  4. Then you add the stem. If the stem goes down, it goes on the left side.

  5. If the stem goes up, it goes on the right side.

  6. Now on your own, draw four half notes on the first space. Remember we count from bottom to top.

  7. Now draw four half notes on the third line. The rule about stems!!Notes on or above the third line usually have stems that go DOWN. Notes on or below the second space have stems that go UP.

  8. Draw a half note on The 4th spaceThe 5th line The 2nd line The 3rd space.

  9. The Treble Clef Sign is Also called the G Clef. That’s because it locates a G on the staff.

  15. The natural notes name the white keys on a keyboard

  16. Sharp, flat, and natural signs appear in the key signature, or right in front of the note that they change.

  17. A sharp sign means "the note that is one half-step higher than the natural note". # b A flat sign means "the note that is one half step lower than the natural note". n A natural sign cancels the last accidental. Some of the natural notes are only one half step apart, but most of them are a whole step apart. When they are a whole step apart, the note in between them can only be named using a flat or a sharp.

  18. Notice that, using flats and sharps, any pitch can be given more than one note name. For example, the G sharp and the A flat are played on the same key on the keyboard; they sound the same. You can also name and write the F natural as "E sharp"; F natural is the note that is a half step higher than E natural, which is the definition of E sharp. Notes that have different names but sound the same are called enharmonic notes or enharmonic equivalents.

  19. G sharp and A flat sound the same. E sharp and F natural sound the same.
