  1. Hello class. I am so happy you're here with me today.
  2. We are going to be learning about musical cliffs
  3. and some strategies on how to learn them. They're super important.
  4. So let's go ahead and get started.
  5. Today. We are going to learn about
  6. how much MS Hill really loves to sing.
  7. I'm just kidding.
  8. We're going to learn about the treble clef which is also called the G clef.
  9. We're also going to be learning about the base class,
  10. which is also called the F clef. Has anyone seen this before?
  11. No,
  12. it's okay. First time for everything. We are going to see it many more times.
  13. All right.
  14. So it is super important in order for us to
  15. memorize these names on the treble clef and bass clef.
  16. We will use as a pneumonic device.
  17. Now when I say pneumonic device, a lot of you guys give me this look back,
  18. you're doing it right now. It's so cute. I love it.
  19. All right,
  20. So it is super important. Pneumonic devices are a tool for us.
  21. We can use them when we are trying to learn and memorize new information
  22. and it is super important for us to learn our note names on the trouble class.
  23. And basically
  24. because this is one of the ways we communicate in the music world,
  25. it's how we talk to each other. Just like it's super important.
  26. You learn your words and your other classes.
  27. It's also important. We learn these.
  28. Alright, so what is that? What is a pneumonic device.
  29. They can come in many forms actually.
  30. So using the first letters in a name or a phrase to form a word or sentence.
  31. You can use them as acronyms. Has anyone seen L O L before?
  32. Yeah.
  33. Yeah. Your mom says it. I love that.
  34. All right. So L O L. Means laugh out loud.
  35. Now some of these other ones you might not be familiar with,
  36. but we are going to use these to master
  37. our bass and treble clef names.
  38. So we have every Good boy does fine. And if you look
  39. to the other side of that arrow,
  40. you see that every first letter in those words make up this little little word chunk.
  41. We have E G B D F.
  42. Every Good Boy does fine or you could even say every giant ball drops fast.
  43. If we look at
  44. the second to last one, we have good bears. Don't feel angry.
  45. What are the letters for those
  46. first one of each word, we have G P D. F. A.
  47. Alright. And then finally the last one, we have all cows eat grass.
  48. Do you think that's true? Do cows only eat grass?
  49. No, the other things too.
  50. Yeah. Alright, so all cows eat grass.
  51. All the first letters and those words are all capitalized and on the
  52. other side of the arrow it gives us a c E G.
  53. Alright, so pneumonic devices can come in many forms like we said earlier,
  54. You can see them in song and rhyme, images, phrases, sentences, poems,
  55. it's really endless. It's just a little tool that helps you
  56. form
  57. a quick reference.
  58. So you'll be able to pull this information and honestly you'll be able to master it.
  59. So let's dive into the trouble clef.
  60. So you see that every line on the trouble cliff has a name
  61. we read from bottom up.
  62. And if you see we start with our E at the bottom there we have E G B D F.
  63. And I said earlier that every good boy does fine
  64. or every good boy deserves fudge or every good bear
  65. deserves food.
  66. All right.
  67. Yeah. You see, it's just like a pyramid.
  68. We read from the bottom up.
  69. All right.
  70. And then our spaces in the middle. They also have names too.
  71. And we have a new pneumonic device alert and it is rhyme.
  72. So we C F A C E.
  73. What does that spell guys
  74. face? Good job, yep.
  75. And our pneumonic device we are using is rhymes.
  76. So a word that rhymes with face is space.
  77. Perfect. Perfect.
  78. Alright, oh my gosh, we have another pneumonic device alert. What do you think it is
  79. rhyme again? Let's find out.
  80. It's actually song.
  81. We have a song here and every good bear deserves food.
  82. So we have a song that goes along with that.
  83. Let me sing it for you guys and we'll
  84. be sure to practice this throughout our class today.
  85. So the song goes a little, something like this
  86. there once was a good bear. He liked food Freddy is his name and he's in a good mood.
  87. F A C E rhymes with space Freddy eats food and gets it on his face. Oh Freddy.
  88. He's a messy eater. Any of you guys?
  89. Yeah.
  90. Perfect. Let's hop on into our basic left today.
  91. So just like in our trouble cleft,
  92. we are going to read it from bottom up like that pyramid.
  93. So our first letters of every word, we have G B D F and A.
  94. There are those colored letters right there.
  95. Perfect.
  96. So my pneumonic device for this is I'm
  97. assigning each of these words to help me memorize
  98. good bears. Don't feel angry.
  99. Do you guys think that statement is true?
  100. Yeah, everybody has their days. So I understand.
  101. Alright. And just like on our trouble club as well, those spaces in between.
  102. They have names as well.
  103. A C E G
  104. This time we can't use a rhyme. So we are going to
  105. use the same one. We used to memorize the lines. We have all cows eat grass.
  106. You see those words translate to the first
  107. letter,
  108. yep, you have a C E and G.
  109. Beautiful. We'll come back to this for sure.
  110. Alright.
  111. And let's go ahead and try it out and you know,
  112. at this point you might be wondering when will I use this
  113. plenty of times. I still use these every single day to remember so many things guys.
  114. So you will use this strategy when you
  115. are having trouble committing something to memory.
  116. There's just something that keeps slipping your mind and
  117. you feel like you have to know this.
  118. And when you want to try something fun and a new way of learning and thinking.
  119. Try any of these.
  120. And when you need to recall something super important,
  121. just like our trouble and bass clef note names.
  122. You can go ahead and use this strategy as well.
  123. So you can make up a song, a rhyme, a phrase, use a picture or write a poem.
  124. Anything that really helps you master this concept.
  125. Alright, let's go and try a game. It's a guessing game.
  126. I'm going to ask you what this stands for and what does it relate to?
  127. And I'm going to have you guys raise your hands and raise
  128. them high so I can call on all of our volunteers.
  129. So our first one is every Good Boy. Every Good bear deserves food.
  130. We remember that one. Who knows what that stands for.
  131. Yeah, that's a great job. We saw that on our trouble clef.
  132. Those are our trouble cleft lines. Great job. How about the next one?
  133. Good bears. Don't feel angry.
  134. G B D F A.
  135. Yeah, that's what that stands for. Amazing. And what does that relate to?
  136. That is our bass clef line.
  137. Beautiful.
  138. You guys are so smart. How about space? This was a different pneumonic device.
  139. We were using it rhymes that one.
  140. Face. Yes. Space rhymes with face. And where did we see? Face at,
  141. correct? Our treble clef spaces.
  142. How about this last 1? All cows eat grass.
  143. A c e G, correct. Yes. And this lines up with our what? Cliff?
  144. Our bass clef.
  145. And it is our spaces on the bass clef.
  146. You guys are so smart and I really appreciate you helping me clear
  147. out all these sticky notes I had on my task list today.
  148. I appreciate you. And I look forward to
  149. continuing on in our music world.
  150. Alright, bye guys.
