Seeing Intervals, Seconds, Fourths, Sixths

Seconds, fourths and sixths are all intervals that have one note on a line and one on a space. Seconds have one note on a line and the next on the adjacent space. To think about it the other way, a second could begin on a space, then the other note would be a line. Fourths have one note on a space and one note on a line. There is a line and a space in between the notes. Sixths have one note on a space and one on a line with two lines and two spaces in between the notes.
