Well, the collection of lines is known as a "Staff" and each staff has a precurser symbol that signifies the "Clef". The two types of clef are Bass Clef and Treble Clef. Bass Clef is on the bottom and Treble Clef is on the top.

The names of each are shown below. An acronym that can help you remember the Treble Staff is "Every Good Boy Does Fine" and "FACE". The acronym "Every Good Boy Does Fine" helps you to remember the lines while "FACE" helps remember the spaces. The Bass Clef can be remembered with the acronym "Good Boys Do Fine Always" and "ACE-G".]]> 2019-02-08 15:00:01 UTC https://padlet.com/sb917701/ggimrp28dngp/wish/329224942 sb917701 https://padlet.com/sb917701/ggimrp28dngp/wish/329266125 In music, there are multiple types of notes that indicate different sound durations. Below are the most common music notes; a whole not, half note, quarter note, eighth note, sixteenth note and thirty-second note (Left to right). Other markings included in this image are rests, which we will discuss later.]]> 2019-02-08 16:06:47 UTC https://padlet.com/sb917701/ggimrp28dngp/wish/329266125 sb917701 https://padlet.com/sb917701/ggimrp28dngp/wish/329276117 The stem of the note is the line that points either up or down off the note. The direction of the stem is based on the notes relation to the center line on each staff. If a note is above the center line, the stem points down. If the note is below the center line, the stem would point up. If a series of notes is connected by a beam, the furthest note from the center line is used to decide.]]> 2019-02-08 16:23:40 UTC https://padlet.com/sb917701/ggimrp28dngp/wish/329276117 sb917701 https://padlet.com/sb917701/ggimrp28dngp/wish/329279440 Rests are similar to notes. Every note has a complimentary note that takes up similar time values. Below they are listed from left to right: Whole rest, half rest, quarter rest, eighth rest, sixteenth rest, and thirty-second rest.]]> 2019-02-08 16:29:17 UTC https://padlet.com/sb917701/ggimrp28dngp/wish/329279440 sb917701 https://padlet.com/sb917701/ggimrp28dngp/wish/329285249 If you see a note with a dot next to it, that symbolizes that theres a note of half its value attached to the current note. For example, if you see a whole note with a dot next to it, that can be read as the equivalent of a whole note and a half note combined. Below we can see a dotted half and a dotted eighth.]]> 2019-02-08 16:39:53 UTC https://padlet.com/sb917701/ggimrp28dngp/wish/329285249 sb917701 https://padlet.com/sb917701/ggimrp28dngp/wish/329288410 Notes and rests are all worth a certain amount of beats. A whole note/rest is worth 4 beats and every note below that is worth half the previous notes value. For example, a quarter note/rest is worth 1 beats while an eighth note/rest is worth 1/2 of a beat.]]> 2019-02-08 16:44:54 UTC https://padlet.com/sb917701/ggimrp28dngp/wish/329288410 sb917701 https://padlet.com/sb917701/ggimrp28dngp/wish/329291287 Some notes don't fit on either Treble or Bass Clef. Because of this, ledger lines exist. Ledger lines are simply lines added above or below the staff.
This image will help you put a name to those ledger lines.
