This is an ongoing beginning piano class. It is modified for the learner based on their piano skills. A sample schedule will look like as follows: Week of January 25 Theme: Introduction to the piano. We will learn about piano posture and finger numbers. We will also talk about the music alphabet and how it is different than the English alphabet. Week of February 1 Theme: What is a quarter note? We will then play a song from the music book. Week of February 8 Theme: What is a half note and a whole note? We will learn about these two notes and their time duration in music. We will play songs from the music book assigned. Week of February 15 Theme: Treble Clef and Bass Clef. We will learn the treble and bass clef and which hands usually play in these clefs. We will then play music from the music book. Throughout class, we will use games from musicplayonline.com that will be shared on screen throughout class.
