Understanding Basic Rhythms

Identifying Notes on the Staff
- Musical notation uses a staff, which is a set of five horizontal lines and spaces.
- Notes are placed on these lines and spaces.
- Each line and space corresponds to a specific musical note.
- Learning the note names on the lines (E, G, B, D, F) and spaces (F, A, C, E) is essential.
- This understanding will make associating your rhythm with the correct notes on the staff easier.
