DOES PLAYING FAMILIAR SONGS HINDER LEARNING TO READ NOTES ON THE GRANDSTAFF?
Since motivation is the key to getting a student to practice and stick with lessons ….and music is the best motivation, we have found that playing familiar songs is the key. Students who have a good ear will try to pick out tunes they know on the piano, but they would rather have the music. Since there are many pieces in each book, there are also plenty of unfamiliar tunes in PHONICS 4 PIANO that allow the teacher to make sure the student is reading the notes.
