Notes Above And Below The Staff (Ledger Lines)

How many lines are on the music staff?

• 2

• 5

• 4

What are the extra lines above the staff called?

• Staff

• Ledger Lines

• Music Lines 

• Rhythmic Notation

What's the next note?

• E

• D

• C

What is the name of the fifth note on the treble clef if the first one is E and you must go backwards alphabetically?

• A

• B

• C

• D

On a scale of 1-10, how do you feel in terms of being able to figure out notes that are above and below the staff now (aka figuring out the notes on the ledger lines)?

Note: It's okay if you think you might take a few minutes to figure out the note or count up all the lines and spaces. I am not talking about being fast at it- I am talking about just actually understanding how to figure the notes out.

• I feel very confident figuring out letter names using ledger lines above or below the staff.

• I'm getting there... I'll be confident with a little more practice.

• I'm confused about this and need some help to figure out letter names using ledger lines.
