The handout and worksheets are great for helping to reinforce music-reading skills in the beginning stages. They are also great to give to the students who are having trouble and need the visual and tactile reinforcement to understand note-reading.
Students can practice writing the notes, and naming and fingering each note. Exercises are presented by string, and by finger, so that students can see visual patterns.
Violin and Viola students are introduced to the 4th finger on the highest string. Cello and Bass players are introduced to 2 fingerings for the 2nd note on the string. Bass players are introduced to two possible fingerings in 2nd and 3rd position on the G-String.
There is also a simple composition exercise at the end where students can write a melody that their partner can perform for the class!
(Remember, future updates and the addition of new worksheets and tests will be free!)
