Beautiful Faces - Brilliant Students

Look at the beautiful faces of these wonderful students!

We have already learned so much this year.  The first year students know how to sing a major scale with hand signs, follow a given rhythm, recognize themes in classical music, distinguish high and low notes, keep a steady beat, follow chord maps, and more!

The second year students have learned their finger numbers, intervals, keyboard layout, and notation for Middle C.  They can play the "red" chord (tonic) as accompaniment, read steps and skips from the staff and play them on the keyboard, read 'note rhythm' cards, and imitate keyboard patterns. Wow!

This may sound like a lot of work, but we have so much fun while doing it!
