On text 1 you can see, Father, Christmas, Gave, David, an, empty, box. These are sharps and flats in scales. Going down are major scales and going up are Flat Scales. On Text 2 you can see, Freddie’s, Bi, Elephant, ate, Davids, granny. These are the scales. Going down are flats and going down are sharps
How do we use this: Here is an example. Say I wanted to find which flats are in F major. I would look for f fat major on text 2 (I would go to F. Then I would count how many up/ down it is. So i know that it is only 1 down. I would then move over to text 1 and from the bottom count up 1 because i know that f major only has 1 flat. I then know that my flat is B.
That is how you would find what flat or sharp you will need.
