They are the black keys on a keyboard..the notes produced if you were to move a note up a fret on a guitar, for example. #'s go up, and b's go down.
If you tell us what instrument you are playing, or thinking of playing, it would be easier to explain how they work...

They are not natural.

A flat note is a note a half step lower than the note being flattened. For example, a Bb is a half step lower than B.
A sharp note is a note a half step higher than the note being sharpened. For example, a C# is a half step higher than a C.
Don't worry about double sharps and double flats yet, because you probably won't be using them for a while.
Some notes are a whole step lower when flattened. These are: Cb (which goes to B), and Fb (which goes to E).
Some notes are a whole step higher when sharpened. These are: B# (which goes to C), D# (which goes to E), and E# (which goes to F)

Hi Pete and Maintube it's good to "see" the two of you.
I'm still taking music lessons but with a different teacher. She emphasizes correct rhythym/counting and it's a real challenge for me.
Hope this year brings good things.
