Good afternoon students! I have created another read aloud story for you to enjoy, and another staff lesson that includes the use of ledger lines. If you are one of the students that downloaded and handed in all the sheets from the previous staff lesson, you will have already had a glimpse of labelling notes that are outside of the staff. Here’s what I would like to you to do for this assignment:

  1. Watch the link provided below called “Crater Island Staff Lesson”. You must watch this video to get some clues as to what I am asking you to search for in the read aloud.
  2. Watch the read aloud video below of “The Secret of Crater Island”, and see if you van find the three BRAND NEW NOTES that are labelled in the book.
  3. Once you’ve found the three BRAND NEW NOTES (I’ll give you a hint; they are OUTSIDE the staff) draw me a staff (including the five lines and the treble clef) with the three new notes shown and labelled and decorated (just like you have been doing for the previous two videos).
  4. Enjoy yourself this long weekend!!!
