Review: Solid Start in Note Reading for the Young Beginner - I am a piano teacher and I grew up playing the Alfred series. When I started teaching, I used the Alfred series. As I expanded my knowledge of resources out there, I came across this book. In comparison to the Alfred Level 1A book, this one works much better for young beginners. The introduction of notes on the staff is gradual and gives students a chance to absorb 1-3 notes at a time before introducing others (the Alfred book shows all 5 notes in C Position at once and only gives you 1 song for each hand before students are expected to read the grand staff with 5 notes on each staff. For many young beginners, this is overwhelming and they end up struggling with note reading). This book also emphasizes the difference between steps and skips - while you come across a couple 5ths here and there, they are not formally labeled as 5ths. This allows students the chance to get comfortable understanding the staff and the difference between steps and skips before overwhelming them with intervals galore. The first half(ish) of the book is all pre-reading - no staff, just lettered notes and rhythms. I love having the option to use all these pages for younger beginners who need more time to understand the connections between rhythm, the letters of the keys, and their hands. However, for fast learners or some 8-9 year old beginners, we skip some of these songs. Lastly, there are many teacher duets in this book, which are great for (1) spicing up some otherwise bland songs (what can you expect when you only know 2 notes?), (2) helping kids develop their sense of rhythm (we have to count together to stay together!), and (3) allowing beginners to have fun. Almost all my students love playing duets. My students do better when they start with this book rather than the Alfred 1A book. If you have an older beginner, or one with some experience reading music, this book will probably be too easy for them and they'll race right through. But for beginning kids 8-9 and younger, this works like a charm. Review: Love this book for young beginning students! - I have used this book with about seven of my students so far, and I LOVE IT! I use it in conjunction with the theory book (I do not use the technique and artistry book or the performance book but they are available) and I really like how the things they learn in the music is what they are also learning in their theory book. I try to reinforce even further during the lesson with a game, and they almost always remember what we've learned. The way they introduce a single note at a time is really great for young learners, and it gives them time to remember and digest that note before learning something new. My younger students a lot of times remember note names better than my older students! The other great thing about this book, though, is that while they learn and use finger numbers to find hand positions and occasionally guide them throughout the song, they really are reading by note name as well as steps and skips (2nd and 3rd intervals) rather than just reading finger numbers. I also love that this book teaches steps and skips and focuses on it just as much as note name. It gives my students two dynamics to learn a song by, and together they make a really strong playing student. This book starts by teaching finger numbers and pre-reading songs off the staff, and then slowly transitions to the staff one note at a time, so I have only used it with younger students (Kindergarten-3rd grade). But if you have an older student with a handicap or who prefers to learn more slowly, I would definitely recommend this book. My students come away with an in-depth knowledge of everything they have learned. I couldn't be happier with this book! ## Features - Over 45 Songs Teaching Dynamics and Use of the Pedal - Arranged for Piano - Standard Notation - Publisher: Faber Piano Adventures - 64 Pages ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #203 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #1 in Piano & Keyboards #1 in Music Techniques (Books) #2 in Music Instruction & Study (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 7,728 Reviews | ## Images ![Piano Adventures - Lesson Book - Primer Level - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61EyL1b4LwL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Solid Start in Note Reading for the Young Beginner *by J***M on July 21, 2017* I am a piano teacher and I grew up playing the Alfred series.
