Read Music Method: Teach Children How to Read Music

By Joanna Rogers

The beginning stages of reading music are broken into easy progressive steps. Students gain a deep comprehension of the musical staff, and right away, begin writing and playing their own music. Tracking and note recognition become second nature. Children of all learning styles are tempted to quickly advance by the sheer fun of trying the next task Students will: 1) Build a solid basic skill of reading lines and spaces, 2) Recognize intervals like old friends, 3) Recognize notes by reading, writing, and listening, 4) Quickly and easily begin reading notes on the musical staff.
