I would just like to sing higher. Any ways to stretch my range?

HI there! Vocal excercises by octaves is the best way to do that. 1-3-5-3-1. Then the next note with the 1-3-5-3-1. Also, an octave is 10 notes so to practice in octaves, you can use the 1-3-5-3-1 pattern to warm up and then you can lmove up to the 1-1 pattern. The first "1" being the first note you start on and the next "1" being the the10th note away from the first "1" you sang. If this is difficult on your vocal cords, try stretching your notes from the first one to the tenth note away sort of like a slide up and then back down again. This will help you strengthen and broaden your range. I love to sing. If you have any questions, hit me up! :o) Let me know if this helps you.
