He clearly explained it.

I mean that I have no bloody clue what a a something like bloody bottom G or what a bloody ledger line even is.

Notes are given a letter name from A to G, then repeat. A ledger is the five lines that music is written on. So if you count the five lines from the bottom up, the second one is G (in treble clef, that symbol that looks a bit like an &). After that the notes repeat, so the space above that is A, the line above that is B, etc. The device most people use to remember the notes corresponding to the spaces and lines is, starting at the bottom for spaces spells "FACE" or F-A-C-E. So if you're looking at the five lines, the ledger, the spaces between the line going up correspond to the notes F, A, C, and E in that order.

The lines use the device "Every Good Boy Does Fine, or E G B D F.

On a piano you can find G between the first and second black key in any set of three black keys. (if you look at a piano you'll notice a pattern of three black keys, a space, and then two black keys. This can be confusing, but space between B and C is a half step as well as between E and F. A half step is indicated otherwise by the # and b symbol, moving to the black keys, but remembering that doesn't really come into play until you've got the hang of everything else.)

Sorry I do not follow, Its me, but I never understood this stuff, I do not remember what the A B C etc sound like, so I pressed the wrong key etc.

Art class - In school, I didn't like art class.

Yet it didn't destroy all enthusiasm. That's good.

PE - Probably the very very worst. In fact, if I had to pick one, this is the one. This is the least favorite.

It's a dilemma for modern schools, because kids either love PE or hate it. And government is telling them they have to do all they can to promote physical exercise, but on half of the students PE is doing the opposite. Then there the risk of injury which can get their school sued.

I went to a school where the PE teacher sent us all on a 40 minutes run, off school grounds and up a nearby hummock where he thought he could check on us coming back. But he was probably off bonking one of the other teachers, because the kids had all worked out there was a shortcut, with a nice glade to hang out in (not that nice when it was raining, which was often) which cut the run down to about 10 minutes. Or 20 minutes walk of course. Sometimes he came with us, which was no fun because it was a pretty hard run.

Oh No! =(

The shortcut must have severely undercut the intended objectives of the class =) Did he find on those days where he came along for the 40 mins that the kids couldn't make it?

It didn't sound like the class worked well at all =(

Never mind. You can still be a drummer.

I failed, really, no sense of rythm.

I hated music classes so much I sabotaged the 8th grade musical.

Well you'll have to be a manager then.

1. You find a band no-one else likes, but they sound OK to you.
2. You sabotage them a bit (just short of wanting to kill each other).
3. Promote them until they're successful.

Haha, good one.

No I meant I made sure it got cancelled.

Hmmm... I wanted to vote but then PE isn't the polls. Did the OP forget? =(

You were never expected to remember what they sounded like, that's way to early. It's hard enough just remembering where they are on the instrument you're learning and where they are on the ledger lines (the five lines on a sheet of music.) Being able to pull the pitch from just the name of the note is either an inherent talent or a skill people work on for a really long time. When you see a singer or acapella group perform, someone usually plays a note that orients everyone's ear to a reference pitch. After practice with your instrument you eventually get a sense for what the pitch will be for what fingering, but that takes practice. Like I said, it's hard enough work just learning the notes on the page and how they correspond to the fingering on the instrument. Most people write the letter name for the note over each one while they're learning or even a crude drawing of the fingering depending on the instrument.

Once again, this isn't something you just are able to do once you know the principles, it takes practice.

Well, they expected us to do that in 3 weeks.

That doesn't sound right.

But I've already threadjacked this enough to continue to try an unpack your issue.

Just saying why music does not, and will never work for me, thats all.

Y,all have a good day.

Music class sucked, mostly because of the surprising lack of keytar

With us it was a stupid song festival fanboy.

Yuck.

I've taught these things to 6 year olds. In the future you probably want to establish that you had no interest rather than insisting that you can't grasp something 6 year olds are able to learn. The former is completely legitimate, I'm sure I can learn programing languages, but I have no interest in doing so.

You can never have enough keytar. The hardest part is finding the headband to go with it. You can't play keytar without a sweatband/headband. That'd be ridiculous.

I've pretended to learn the keytar once, it was a great montage

They just expected too much too fast, and that is why it did never work for me.

I had no interest becuase they kept forcing it on me.

Of all the natural sciences meanwhile, Chemistry is probably my least favorite. Math and Physics are really fun if and only if I ignore the looming disasters that is the exams. Curiously enough, I found Biology to be my favorite and I can still my interest show up whenever I go anywhere that involves nature, which is strange as I'm majoring in computing

Have you considered bioinformatics?

It's using computers to calculate all kinds of cool things, like DNA sequencing and protein folding.

Surprisingly, English. I used to enjoy the subject and did well in it, but, seriously, I don't know what happened to me during this whole online school thing. 10th grade year has started off quite badly. Now, it's just frustrating. Maybe I'm just getting stupider or something, but I can hardly seem to be able to write anything anymore. It feels like my writing skills have just regressed ever since online schooling. On the contrary, my favorite subjects would be Chemistry/Biology and History. I'd like to take art class just for fun, because drawing is one of my favorite hobbies ^_^. (Although my mom would rather me take more "beneficial" classes, so I'm here doing yearbook instead. So far it's not bad, only because we barely do anything in the class anyways.)

[The Blaatschapen]

My least favourite class was drawing.

Seriously, these hooves cannot hold a paintbrush properly.

[Dryicor]

Art or biology.

Or the bourgeoisie.
