Here is a rap that I created to introduce the treble clef notes to my students. I made song sheets of the words to help them learn it. I use this as a fun way to begin reading music. Once they have learned the rap, we talk about the staff, lines, and spaces. Then we rap again. I even add rap tracks and the kids LOVE IT! Grades 2-5 love this and remember it for years!

E,G,B,D,F
E,G,B,D,F
Names of the lines of the treble clef
F,A,C,E
F,A,C,E
Spaces are named so let me be BUT
Now I remember
Now I see
I can read music no matter how C H E E S Y
(and they say the ending really cheesy and stretched out)
