Teaching guide, sample answers and curriculum references

Before you begin

Read or listen to the model and identify what the task asks before responding.

How to use this worksheet

  1. Name the first shown note using the treble key.
  2. Name the third shown note.
  3. Why would changing the clef require a different naming key?

A common mistake to discuss

A clef sets the pitch reference, so the same staff position may have a different pitch under another clef.

What to practice next

Create a different example that preserves the learning goal, and explain how you would check it.
