Teaching Preschooler Space Notes on the Treble Clef

After you have reviewed the line notes on the treble clef, it's time to move on to the space notes.  You will need your large treble clef, laminated circles with either F, A, C, or E written on them, and magic notes.

You can use the following song, set to the tune of Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star:


The treble clef it has four spaces
F-A-C-E
F-A-C-E
F-A-C-E
The treble clef it has four spaces
F-A-C-E

(c. 2011 Rohde)

As you sing the song, place a magic note on each of the spaces on the staff, beginning with the bottom space. Teach the space notes the same way you taught the line notes, using your laminated circles with the note names written on them.
