Do you teach piano students who are working in a level 2 method book?
At this level, you would assume that time spent learning to read notes on the staff would be a thing of the past.
Of course, it is not.
There will always be kids who struggle with note reading. In addition, there will always be notes that trip up kids who, otherwise, are pretty good note readers.
Kids entering level 2 method books are often exploring the G 5-finger scales. For the most part, these scales contain familiar notes.
But there are still some that cause issues; particularly Low G, A, and B, and Treble A and B.
Today we have created two note reading games that reinforce these notes. Use them with your late level 1 or early level 2 piano students.
