🎻 THE ALTO CLEF, TAUGHT PROPERLY

Middle C sits on the middle line. That is the whole trick of the C clef, and it is where this unit starts rather than where it ends up as an afterthought.

Lines: F A C E G — Fat Alley Cats Eat Garbage

Spaces: G B D F — Good Boys Do Fine

Notes run from C3 to G5, so the ledger work stays inside what a violist actually reads.

🎯 WHY THE A/B VERSIONS MATTER

Every worksheet comes in two independent draws. Version A is the lesson, version B is the retake, the sub day, or the student sitting next to the one who finished early. Same difficulty, different questions, separate answer keys.

👩‍🏫 WHO IT'S FOR

Violists, string orchestra classes, and theory students meeting C clefs for the first time.
