Music Mind Games Grand Staff Cards

Grand staff cards are used to teach students about the staff, the clefs, the names of the lines and spaces, and much more.

Win a Triad from Music Mind Games on Vimeo.

These cards help students:

  • Learn about the staff and clefs names

  • Learn the difference between a line and a space

  • Learn the names of the notes on the grand staff

  • Practice intervals

  • Learn the relationship of the notes in the different clefs to their instruments

  • Practice triads and inversions

 

Notes

The grand staff is slightly modified so the space between the two clefs is only enough for the three notes found between the clefs: B, middle C, and D. This makes it easier for students to learn the relationship between the two staves.

  • Bass, alto and treble clefs together on one staff

  • Open strings on the violin, viola, cello and bass

  • Treble clef with notes originating from G

  • Bass clef with notes originating from F

  • Alto clef with notes originating from C

  • Symmetrical arrangement of the C notes

  • Octave placement for each note A, B, C, D, E, F and G (notes are not labeled)
