Staff Review Game
Grade Level: 4-6
Shelly Stockton
This is more of a game than a lesson plan, but I've found it extremely effective for
teaching treble and bass clef note names.
1. Use masking tape to "design" a large staff on the floor of your room. On a large piece
of cardboard draw a treble clef on one side and bass clef on the other.
2. Split class into 2 groups and have each line up in front of the staff. Choose a clef
sign and decide on a line or space note from the staff and say it aloud, like "treble
clef-lines"
3. Have the entire class say the name of the treble clef lines, "E-G-B-D-F" or "Every Good
Boy Does Fine"
4. Name a note from Treble clef lines, like "G"
5. The first student in each line race to see who can step on the "G" line first. Game
continues until all have had a turn.
My students love this game and beg to play it. Here are some alternative ideas to use with
it:
Switch back and forth between clefs as they gain confidence and have notes written on board
if necessary.
Keep score. One point earned per win and points lossed if entire team doesn't "say" the
note names on #3.
Have a tournament. Challenge the winner yourself and offer a prize if the student beats
you. (It's harder than it looks so I'd suggest practicing 1st!)
Use the game as an incentive for completed work throughout the year. They call it a "party"
we know it's learning! Have fun!
