Step-by-step solution for: Free Music Theory Worksheet - The Staff/Treble Clef - the piano ...
Let’s go step by step through each part of the worksheet.

Part 1: Draw the treble clef and write five more on your own
The treble clef (also called G clef) starts on the second line from the bottom — that’s the G line. You draw a spiral around that line, then loop up and down, ending with a curl at the top right.
You’re asked to trace over dotted lines first (which we can’t do here), then draw five more on your own. Since this is text-based, I’ll describe how to draw it clearly so you can practice:
- Start at the G line (second line from bottom).
- Make a small circle around that line.
- Go up in a big loop above the staff.
- Come back down, crossing the G line again.
- Curve under and make a small tail or curl at the end (like a backward “S” shape at the top).
Practice drawing it 5 times on blank staves. Each one should look like a fancy “G” wrapping around the second line.

Part 2: Write a treble clef at the beginning of the staff. Then write the letter names of each note.
We are given a staff with notes placed on different lines and spaces. Let’s identify them using the treble clef rule:
In treble clef:
- Lines (from bottom to top): E - G - B - D - F → “Every Good Boy Deserves Fudge”
- Spaces (from bottom to top): F - A - C - E → spells “FACE”
Now let’s label each note shown in Part 2 (left to right):
1. First note: on the bottom line → that’s E
2. Second note: on the first space → that’s F
3. Third note: on the second line → that’s G
4. Fourth note: on the second space → that’s A
5. Fifth note: on the third line → that’s B
6. Sixth note: on the third space → that’s C
7. Seventh note: on the fourth line → that’s D
8. Eighth note: on the fourth space → that’s E
9. Ninth note: on the fifth line → that’s F
So the sequence is:
E, F, G, A, B, C, D, E, F
Write those letters below each note on your paper.

Part 3: Draw a treble clef at the beginning of the staff. Then draw the notes indicated. If a note can be written on more than one place in the staff, choose one.
Given note names:
G, E, B, C, D, B, A, C, D, F
We need to place each note correctly on the staff using treble clef positions.
Recall:
- G = second line
- E = bottom line OR fourth space (we’ll use bottom line for simplicity unless specified)
- B = third line
- C = third space OR first ledger line below (we’ll use third space)
- D = fourth line
- A = second space
- F = first space OR fifth line (we’ll use first space)
Let’s assign each note to its most common position:
1. G → second line ✔
2. E → bottom line ✔
3. B → third line ✔
4. C → third space ✔
5. D → fourth line ✔
6. B → third line ✔
7. A → second space ✔
8. C → third space ✔
9. D → fourth line ✔
10. F → first space ✔
All these fit within the staff without needing ledger lines, which is perfect for beginners.
On your paper, draw a treble clef at the start of an empty staff, then place dots (note heads) on the correct lines/spaces as listed above.

Final Answer:
For Part 2, the note names from left to right are:
E, F, G, A, B, C, D, E, F
For Part 3, draw the following notes on the staff after placing a treble clef:
- G on the second line
- E on the bottom line
- B on the third line
- C on the third space
- D on the fourth line
- B on the third line
- A on the second space
- C on the third space
- D on the fourth line
- F on the first space
(You will physically draw these on your worksheet.)
